Voraiah is located in the northern area of the country, away from the river and in an area that is more sandy and not too fertile.
Voraiah has the reputation of being the poorest city in the country, but that's not true. It's more of a stigma they have because they have the largest black markets - other than maybe those in Norsen itself - and because the city itself is a base for thieves. It's one of the more dangerous cities to visit, but also a place where people might want to go to get some rare artifacts and treasures that they can't find elsewhere. They also create and sell a lot of Heiden Tablets - written black magic that is extremely dangerous and volatile due to it's habit of rebounding and causing damage to the user, mentally and/or physically. Heiden is outlawed throughout the whole country, though people still try to procure such spells and have found that Voraiah is the best place to find them.

The ruler of Voraiah is Lady Ledthei. While she is an older and frail woman, she is not to be trifled with. While there is no true proof, it is generally accepted that Lady Ledthei is in full control over the Dark Syndicate, the largest of the black markets within Voraiah. Those who try to cross her have a habit of mysteriously ending up dead.
