Description

I’m currently developing the island realm of Astaria in my world and created several cities in a classic empire style with Inkarnate.

Now I’m trying to decide which one works best as the capital.

Which of these cities feels like it could be the political and cultural center of an island empire? And why?

Curious to hear your thoughts!
