The only location in Rakthorr to not be claimed by a larger country, Paromkol sits as a glittering gem in the center of the central continent.

Common law is enforced within Paromkol, but due to their lack of central government, no official code of laws exists beyond those set within the Stones of Order at the center of the city. The Stones provide the following laws:

1) Violence is forbidden in this place of peace.
2) Take only what belongs to you, and what you trade fairly for. Theft will be dealt with swiftly.
3) Incite no riots or unrest within this city. We gather in peace and cooperation. Division goes against all that this place holds sacred.
4) No one shall claim leadership of this Free City. No one shall be held above another, for here, all are equal.
5) And it Harm None, Do What You Will.

Paromkol has no leaders, but has a group of militia known as the Lawkeepers to enforce the Code set out by the Stones. It has never had a leader, nor will it ever; it is strictly forbidden in the Stones themselves.

Paromkol sits on an island where the Nenno, Ixai, and Arynn rivers all converge, leaving the place as the Einheit River; literally the 'River of Unity'. This location was the perfect site for a bustling trading post to grow, and as the countries around them began to grow, so too did Paromkol. At the same time that the island was declared to be the Free City of Paromkol, the Stones of Order were carved and placed at the city's center, with each one being agreed upon by those who were trading there at the time. The stones were arranged in to the figure of the compass rose at the center of town, symbolizing the guidance that the city would follow.

Year Zero. The founding of Paromkol marked the beginning of the current era.
