Adriata is the sun-warmed, pearl-dusted heart of the Summer Court, a city of white stone and turquoise canals where the sea's bounty meets the High Fae's love of beauty and trade.
Also known as: The Pearl City, Summer's Gate, The Canal City
What They Know
- Adriata is the only city in Prythian where the High Lord's palace is built directly into the sea, its lower chambers flooding with each high tide.
- The city's famed pearl divers descend into the deepest, darkest trenches of the Summer Sea, where only the bravest and most reckless seek the black pearls that fetch fortunes in every court.
- The canals of Adriata are not merely decorative; they are the city's primary thoroughfares, patrolled by water-wraiths bound to the High Lord's service.
- Every fifty years, the city hosts the Regatta of Sun and Salt, a race of enchanted vessels that draws competitors from all seven courts.
- Adriata's walls are woven from coral that grows and repairs itself, making the city nearly impregnable from the sea.
- The city's lower districts are home to a thriving community of lesser fae—sailmakers, net-weavers, and fishmongers—who keep the city's heart beating long after the High Fae have retired to their villas.
