City of Varanus

Varanus is the current capital city of Long, located on the eastern shore of Long Bay. Varanus is surrounded by brackish marshes and wetlands through which freshwater slowly makes its way into the sea. The city itself is built on reclaimed land with dams and raised plateaus elevating urban areas above sea level.

The temperature in Varanus is hot and humid with mosquitoes that can cause communicable diseases. A network of royal palaces occupies part of the city center together with gardens and mansions belonging to the elite. In contrast, the periphery of the city is covered in shanty towns.

Varanus has served as the kingdom's capital since the Varanus clan came to power.
