Cillidellan

Cillidellan was a major city on Gonia. Those who managed to find their way across the Munrab Desert found themselves in a warren of ramshackle skyrises and rundown slums which straddled the oozing Silver River. This was Cillidellan. Its population was made up of all the strange peoples, creatures, and cultures of the galaxy crammed into its narrow alleys. It was dirty, over crowded, and often violent, yet Cillidellan was also a major center of economic activity, both above the law and underhand.

It buzzed, it bustled, and it bristled with energy. Everyone who lived there had a particular trade, with its overbearing Guild, or division of the Vishnu Clan, and clearly defined district. This led to intrigue, plotting, bitter competition, and perpetual disputes, clan with clan, district with district, and tradesman with rival tradesman. The only matter which united all of the citizens of Cillidellan was their shared fear and hatred of the pirates who dominated all of the unprotected trade routes and planets in their independent battlecruisers and preyed off any helpless merchant whose paths they crossed. Yet there was one matter which bound them all together, their freedom of trade.
