This article is a stub and still in the process of being completed.

Ven-Marhend is the largest elven city and the third largest in all of the Ancient Lands with a population of 42,000. It is the center of commerce, culture, and politics for the Neshanen and ruled by a powerful caste of nobles who openly practice sorcery. While anyone who is known to worship demons is put to death, this does very little to improve the reputations of the Neshanen nobles among the other peoples of the Ancient Lands. The city is build both on top and at the foot of a tall cliff of red stone, with the traders and craftsmen having their shops in the lower quarter and the mansions of the nobles and most wealthy merchants being in the upper quarter. Even though still part of the Northern Ancient Lands, warm currents and winds from the Inner Sea make it a fairly pleasant place for most of the year, though a few days of snow in the winter are not uncommon, especially in the smaller towns and villages further inland and higher up in the Burning Mountains.
