Pazzio

Pazzio is a walled port town and the first major stop on Holo and Lawrence's journey. About four days' north of Pasloe if traveling on foot or by slow horse, Pazzio is situated on the banks of a major river in the region, allowing the town to flourish as a trading center. The town proper is divided by a distributary of the river that is funneled into canals and spanned by at least six stone bridges, on which can be found many small shops and stalls. Larger marketplaces are located in several of the town's public squares. Due to its port and proximity to the Kingdom of Trenni, Pazzio is home to the branch offices of many corporations hoping to gain a foothold in the region. The Church, however, maintains the most influence over the town's affairs.

The arrival of Holo and Lawrence to Pazzio signaled the escalation of a currency speculation scheme that would pit two of the town's major corporations and their respective associates against one another.

Notable Residents
Pazzio is home to two of Lawrence's business associates: Weiz, a money dealer, and Marlheit, the manager of the town's Milone Trading branch office.
