Namorian Port City

"The bustling docks of Silema, the city of the Moon, are ripe with goings-on. There is never a dull moment there; always something flowing, like the turquoise waters between the sea walls, and the fleets of merchant ships coming in and out of the great city's port."
- Thallasokia the Scribe.*

Sharing this artwork fills me with such joy - not only because I like it a lot, but also because it's the first ever I've made of a Namorian City. Granted, it's just a small part of the port, but it's a step in a new direction for me with my Namorian project.

My usual MO is soldiers, warriors, and mercenaries, and so far (apart from a few sketches of villagers and nobles) most of my output when it comes to Namoria has been soldiers.

Just to be clear, I'm not stepping away from them, but I do want to explore and develop the non-military side of this civilization as well. And finishing this artwork was the first step towards that goal.

I want to develop Namoria into a fully fleshed-out fantasy civilization, within a fully fleshed-out bronze age fantasy setting, and that's gonna require designing a lot more than soldiers.

But I'm excited to get into all of that, and if you are too, then stick around - it's gonna be fun!

So, what do you think the noblewomen are gossiping about?

The Namorians are a fictional seafaring civilization that I'm developing as a fantasy world-building project.
