+The city of Sharn is divided into 5 main [[sharn:arrondissement|arrondissements]], each of which is itself sub_divided into 3 to 4 different "districts", distributed between the Upper, Medium and Lower levels of the city. Each district is itself composed of several [[sharn:districts|districts]] (f.ex. a Quartier du Red light, a shopping district and a residential neighborhood).
+The various districts are found below, listed according to what level they're found at.

+**[[sharn:plateau_central|Plateau Central]]** _ A long wall circles the Plateau Central at it's lowest level, interrupted by towers along it's entire length. Inside the wall, structures rise higher and higher towards the middle, creating a huge artificial mountain at the heart of the city. Mostly populated by the upper and Classe Moyennees, the Plateau Central houses the seat of the city's government, it's wealthiest citizens, and it's finest businesses. Embassies from other nations, important representatives of the Maisons Marquées Du Dragon, and banks are found here as well.
+**[[sharn:plateau_de_menthis|Plateau de Menthis]]** _ Serves as the entertainment hub of the city, and is home to [[:morgrave_university|Université Morgrave]] with a variegated quilt of different races. Certainly the most trendy of Sharn's Arrondissements. Menthis is a popular tourist destination. No walls surround Menthis though its tallest towers are spread along it's outer rim. The enormous dome of Université Morgrave, ringed by five tall, slender towers, stands near the center of the plateau.
+**[[sharn:bordure_nord|Bordure Nord]]** _ The most residential of Sharn's arrondissements, contains everything from towertop penthouses in the heights to tightly packed apartments on the lower levels. Aside from a marketplace district near the bottom of the towers, Bordure Nord is a quiet neighborhood with little commerce and little crime.
+**[[sharn:dura|Dura]]** _ The largest arrondissement in Sharn, covers the great expanse of the western plateau from the cliffs Belvédèreing the Fleuve de la Dague to the crevasse of the Western Cog. It is also the poorest, excepting the Cogs, with even its topmost levels solidly Classe Moyenne. Dura mixes various businesses and housing, never approaching a true residential district but holding a number of apartments, tenements, and (near the bottom) slums. The lower levels of Dura include a large population of immigrants from Darguun and Droaam, forming a neighborhood of Gobelinoids and other monstrous residents.
+**[[sharn:flanc_de_falaise|Flanc de Falaise]]** _ A neighborhood perched precariously on the side of the cliffs above the [[:dagger_river|Fleuve de la Dague]] and Sharn's waterfront. It includes the waterfront businesses far below Dura, as well as towers built up from the cliff face and a shantytown of caves dug into the sides of the southern cliffs Belvédèreing the Hilt. The businesses of Flanc de Falaise are either directly related to shipping or cater to boat crews, adventurers and other transients.
+**[[:tavicks_landing|Tavicks Landing]]** _ At the eastern edge of the city. Is in some ways defined by being the terminus of the Orléans Train Fulgurant line and trade road. The lower levels cater to travelers and traders entering Sharn by rail, and include an entire city district that has been converted to provide housing for refugees from the La Dernière Guerre. The middle and upper levels are broader in their purposes, including a variety of trades, services and residential districts.
+**[[sharn:voie_du_ciel|Voie du Ciel]]** _ Is magically suspended above the city on gigantic disks of force, like //Tenser's Floating Disks// taken to a fantastic extreme. These disks are among the many Objets Magiques and effects in the city that work only because of the presence of the Zone De Manifestations linked to Syranie. Not a cloud palace but an actual extension of the city, Voie du Ciel includes some of Sharn's finest inns and restaurants, exotic and upscale trades, and a number of mansions belonging to the very richest citizens.
+**[[sharn:les_profondeurs|The Depths]]** _ Is the generic name for everything that lies beneath the city's main plateau, excepting Flanc de Falaise and the Cogs far below. The upper levels give way to active and inactive sewers, some of which have their own inhabitants, as well as the mostly forgotten ruins of earlier settlements built long before the towers started to rise. Far below and accessed by well_maintained tunnels and shafts, the Cogs sit at the very base of Sharn and serve as an actively populated center of industry. In fact, the roots of modern Sharn's towers lie underground in some places, buried by the passing of centuries.
+**[[:the_cogs|Les Rouages]]** _ Are the churning heart of the city, full of forges and foundries powered by steaming geysers, molten lava, and bound fire Élémentaires. Extending far below the foundations of Sharn's towers and built along the banks of the great chasms that divide the city, the Cogs incorporate elements of ancient ruins and natural caverns.
