Lasanne

The Royal City
Unlike many countries, Falnara's seat of power is not in its capital. Rather, slightly to the Northwest of Mont des Anges lies Lasanne, the second largest city in Falnara and the home of the royal family.

Lasanne has a high degree of natural protection, like many cities within the country, though there are still strong, thick walls around the borders in the case of attack. There is only one way out of the city, through the southeast gate, and the city's airport services only the royal family and guests.

Despite these restrictions, Lasanne is a large city, only slightly smaller than Mont des Anges, though receiving of far fewer tourists. While there is no restriction on tourism within the city, the trip from the capital to Lasanne is long enough that few take the journey unless they are on an extended visit.

Rather, Lasanne is home to a large amount of the Falnaran population, ranging from merchants in the city's large market to runesmiths and other artisans. Lasanne also bears the country's largest magical academy, large enough to easily rival the university in Juno. Attendance is much more expensive than Juno, however, rivaling that of an expensive boarding school, and rich, Gifted noble students the world over attend the school for one of the best educations money can buy.

The grand palace is situated at the northern point of the city, walled off by yet another barrier and guarded at all times by royal warmages and knights. Much of the castle grounds are not visible to the public save for special festivals and other occasions.
