Location from Beware of Chicken by Casualfarmer
The district capital of Azure Hills — a tiered ancient city on a great lake, with forges, archives, and the kind of commercial infrastructure that makes cultivation communities actually function.
Pale Moon Lake City is where the Azure Hills pretends to be civilized. It's the district capital — the largest settlement in the province — and it functions as the economic and administrative hub for the region. The Moonstone Ward is residential and accessible by boat. The Forge District is industrial at a scale that would impress even cultivators: hundreds of workers producing metalwork in massive furnaces. Mengde's Crystal Emporium operates here, where Biyu works. The Grand Archives hold the province's collected knowledge. A week-long boat journey connects the city to outlying regions. For all its size, Pale Moon Lake City is still an Azure Hills settlement — impressive by local standards, unremarkable by imperial ones.
A living, breathing ancient city built in tiers around Pale Moon Lake, with parks and pavilions sprinkled throughout. Wide, notably clean avenues run through the main districts, though slum areas exist outside the walls. Multiple rivers branch from the lake, with stone dividers and gates marking district entrances. The Forge District features massive furnaces and drop hammers visible from across the water.
