Paro (pronounced PAH-roh) is a city on the tengu island nation of Meklaw. One of the larger examples of Meklovian stilt-city construction, Paro is built almost entirely over the waters of the Invelaust Ocean, buildings and streets constructed on large pillars driven into the shallow ocean floor near the coast. Regular repairs are necessary to stop older sections of the city from collapsing into the sea.
The people of Paro at least nominally reject the presence of pirates in their city, an unusual stance amongst other Meklovian port cities. This has led Paro to be considered the safest city in Meklaw for merchants from abroad, a place to trade without risking their wares being forcibly taken from them. Pirates do still make port in Paro, but with the understanding they will be forcibly driven off if they attempt to raid ships anywhere in or near the city.
