People and points of interest

The Old Square was once at the center of Gallakene, though the city has since expanded inland. By decree of the shufet years ago, the square is kept free of merchants selling their wares, and only really used for religious festivals. In the middle of the square is a large, multi-tiered waterworks that also serves as a shrine to Hasamel.

The Hall of the Judges is a large, finely constructed building at the Old Square. Resembling a Hellean temple more than anything else, the Hall is a rectangular structure with a long gabled roof, supported by columns around the exterior. While some of the building is made of marble, the cost of importing this material during its construction proved prohibitive, and therefore most of the building is actually wood plastered to look like the more valuable stone. The official seat of government in Ellu, those who wish to enter must request and be granted special permission first.

The docks of Gallakene are constantly busy. Raw resources arriving from inland are sent to the expansive warehouses and yards, organized and inventoried before being sent off on merchant vessels.
