It is the last town of the river before that the rivercraft can reach, and so has become the principle transport hub for the area that lies behind it.No one knows why it is called Seven. There are 4 gates, three towers, etc etc. No Seven of anything significant. One side of the town nestles against the river, most of the length of the river being taken up by wharves and docks, and just back from them, most of the merchant's offices and warehouses. The other three compass points of the town lie within low stonewalls topped with timber fortificartions. There are massive oaken doors on each of the gates, but they are rarely closed.The town sits on a plane, surrounded to the north, south and west by a number of farms and further afield, extending back some small villages and hamlets. There is one bridge across the river. To the east lies the forest and the foothills of the mountains. The river winds along the edge of the forest, which at its closest is only a few miles from the town.Note: thought it would take just a mo to whip up a map and stuff. Was I wrong? You betcha.</blockquote>
