East Territory, White Dew City.
The White Dew Fortress of the St. Prowse Family is located at the heart of White Dew City, encircled by the noble district. Here, commoners can't live, let alone come and go without a pass.
Further outward from the noble district is the commercial district, where wealthy merchants gather. Although the location is not bad, and the buildings may not necessarily be poorer in appearance than the noble district, no noble would choose to live here. After all, no matter how wealthy a merchant may be, they still belong to the class of commoners, fundamentally different from the nobles.
However, there is one exceptional family—the Howell Family.
The Howells living outside the noble district of White Dew City is not a result of their destitution or low nobility. On the contrary, the Howell Family is famously affluent in the East Territory, and they are a legitimate hereditary count family of the Empire.
