Government: New Iscario is ruled by a provisional Halcyon prefect, Psilosis Hatuer, though he is little more than the errand boy of bigwigs in Halcyon.

Mood: Unstable and divided. There are those that want to rejoin Iscario, those that want to stay with Halcyon, and those that want to form an independent nation. Unfortunately, the most outspoken and extreme of all these three ideas make the most noise and chaos.

Buildings:
Government: Because the government of Atheneaum allows any indepent voice, ""free speech"", and in fact encourages it, no one objects to the rather strict law enforcement.
Background: Athenauem was once part of the League of Delos, the center of culture. Because, while culture is nice, it rarely makes for a world-stomping power, it faded behind Xerxia and Arphaxadopolis.
Mood: It has the atmosphere of the ""Lost Generation."" It is said ""everyone in Atheneaum is an artist"" and most people are. Or like to act like they are.

Background: Rathmullen was once a castle of some renown, a first line of defense against coastal invasion, though that renown is lost to antiquity (300 years). The ruling family fell victim to, it is rumored The Cry ofthe Clanricardes, a kind of banshee/ghoul. The vampire Ormond took it over. Because the legend scared people away from it, it made the perfect place to hide the Tear of the Lizard. Ormond lets the IRA use it as a base of operations for smuggling the weapons and supplies they get from Aibailya
Mood: Gloomy. People rumor that it is a domain of evil, and so avoid it, thus making for a perfect base of operations. Even scrying mages fear coming to close to Mullaghast
