Every winter season the rich and powerful of Épilême gather in Angouluçon to socialize, attend banquets and spend their gold. It’s a tradition that was naturally established less than a century ago when the ruling prince at the time had introduced some very lenient tax policies for the import and export of goods through the city’s ports. Many of the continent’s rulers, wishing to avoid the unnecessary foreign politics and seduced by the exclusive contracts the city offered them, have adjusted their trade routes to go through the City Of Spires. This has marked Angouluçon as the trading capital of Épilême.
