Kethra, City of Bells
Eight bells, eight watches, and a city that runs entirely on time.
Kethra is the last great city on the road north and the setting of Book Two. It keeps time with eight bell towers, one for each three-hour watch. Contracts expire on a bell. Shops open on a bell. Being late in Kethra isn't rude, it's a legal category.
I built Kethra after a winter of reading about medieval timekeeping, and it's the place readers ask me about most. Its streets are drawn in a separate binder. Yes, a whole binder.
