 Located about 2500 mets north of the equator, Port Haven is a city that never sleeps.  It is sitting on an island that was once the southern tip of Lojem Isle.  The city was at the beginning of the canal that ran to Lake Alfrego.  After the destruction of Karfelon, Port Haven has become the center for trade and commerce for the communities of Lojem.
-Port Haven has a population of roughly 18,000 people.  Being a major center for trade, the population fluctuates frequently, depending on the amount of trade.  About 30 percent of the population are orcs.  Some of these are refugees that fled from Karfelon and Sovaga before the flood in 10,012 SF.  Another 50 percent are humans and half-orcs, while the remaining inhabitants are dwarves, elves, and lizards.

 The barter system of trading and exchanging goods became more popular for a time because it was too easy to mint fake currency.  It was also one method of avoiding the greedy moneychangers. Unfortunately, those greedy moneychangers fought back through the Council, banning the practice altogether throughout the city.
-A lot of the businesses are controlled by organized crime.  Illegal or shady goods are bought, sold, and traded on an hourly basis.  Highly desired goods are also exchanged for premium prices.  For example, one ounce of teresium is worth about 50,000 silver pieces.  Poisons, secret information, and rare metals are all examples of goods being exchanged.
