《Her Golemancer Girlfriend》005.X: Fleettwixt Map & City Guide [BONUS]
Advertisement
Welcome to Fleettwixt, capital of Sunwell and the jewel of the Northern Reaches.
When the North Sunwell Company first set foot on this uncivilized, barbaric continent, they had no further goal than to explore and bring glory to Saxonia. However, as they brought Sunwell into the light, they discovered that it was a place of enormous wealth and opportunity. Fleettwixt, once a fishing village, quickly became a center of commerce, culture, and class.
Fleettwixt itself is a mighty fortress in the most unassuming of places. It lies against the coast in the Great Bay, a mighty shipping center that powers the entire continent, and barrier islands that dot the coastline. The small, convenient Loeb River bisects the city in the north, while the National Forest to the south provides dense greenery and fresh mana. With mountains nearby to the south and east, Fleettwixt is impervious to all but the most fearsome of foes. None in all its history have managed to pierce even to the city walls.
But, of course, that strategic safety does not mean our security is lax. We monitor all people leaving in and out of the city with our state-of-the-art ID card system. Each card contains a spell embedded within that will activate to allow residents to use the city to its fullest extent. Our city walls are staffed by expert soldiers who make sure no one enters or exits Fleettwixt except through our designated ports and stations. We monitor our borders closely to keep your worries low.
The Manadhmeth Dungeon is also one of Fleettwixt’s most famous aspects. Long ago, an ancient Dungeon Core deep under the soil created a massive eight-floor labyrinth to build up its mana reserves and send its mindless beasts—the melanoids—to the surface to pillage and destroy. The North Sunwell Company, thankfully, beat back this menace and conquered the first three floors of the dungeon. A great hero destroyed the Dungeon Core in battle, and now the entire region is open for development and growth. In the coming years, great things will come to Manadhmeth.
There’s so much to enjoy here in Fleettwixt. With a diverse population representing almost every glossal race in the Northern Reaches, the city provides a little bit of everything. No matter where you go, you’ll always find something new to explore.
Let’s begin an overview of the eight main districts of Fleettwixt, and the many features they have to offer:
Highden
If Fleettwixt is the jewel, then Highden is its sparkling core. Businesses in all sectors and of all sizes house their headquarters in Highden’s gleaming towers. Some of the world’s top influences and greatest leaders live in the many sky-high penthouses the district has to offer, and you may spot them walking around and about during your time here. With more shopping than even the greatest spender could go through, easy access to the Manadhmeth Dungeon, and the continent’s busiest train station, Highden has it all.
Notable locations include:
Highden Tower, the famous radio tower that transmits signals across the entire region.
Arthur’s Shrine, a historic monument to Arthur Bradberry, an ancient hero who defended Fleettwixt against a horde of legendary beasts many centuries ago.
The Golem Store, the biggest golem dealership in Sunwell, and a arthouse showcase to the wonderful art of golemancy.
Highden Station, a ten-story piece of architectural wonder, and home to the North Sunwell Transit Agency. Space is already reserved for future construction on an airship terminal. Be excited!
Castle District
The old monarchy of Sunwell still stands in all its historical beauty in this district. Castle Fleettwixt was built over a thousand years ago, made to be a summer home for the Ingvar Imperial Family and the large staff required to fend off attack and keep the peace. When Emperor Ingvar IX dissolved the monarchy four hundred years ago, he gifted the entire Castle District to the North Sunwell Company, who to this day maintains it as a cultural symbol of the greatness that sun elves achieved in the years before the colony.

Notable locations include:
The Royal Gardens, a tranquil, scenic destination that presents the great flora of Sunwell and lands far beyond.
Castle Fleettwixt, a grand museum and two separate theaters that host many cultural events.
Gnometown, a neighborhood just east of the castle where much of Fleettwixt’s gnome population lives. With a bustling population and many public parks, this is one great place to live, no matter your race.
The Night Markets, a long neighborhood-sized street filled to the brim with sellers of all type. Whether it’s good food or good deals, the markets open when the sun sets.
Coliseum District
Since the early days of the North Sunwell Company, Fleettwixt residents have had one central location to enjoy the exciting sports, concerts, and other festivities in the grand Coliseum.
In older times, the Coliseum was a place for bloodsport and execution, but with increased civilization brought to the continent of Sunwell, the Coliseum now stands as a beacon to fun and humane entertainment, including weekly battles between the Grand Champion and her many, many opponents, and the world’s first professional razorball league.
And after watching the night’s events, you can travel to the district’s vibrant nightlife, with bars and clubs to fill you with drink and fun, as well as a short walk to the Night Markets.
Notable locations include:
Orctown, the biggest ethnic neighborhood in Fleettwixt, and a boon for those looking for good food and drink. There are also many used goods stores that specialize in all the rare gear you might be looking for.
Green Beach, a small but always active part of the district. Most of the southern coastline is inaccessible, but Green Beach gives residents access to good waves, soft sand, and warm waters each and every summer.
The Red Light District, a neighborhood with long historical ties to the Coliseum. Despite the name, it is not an official district of Fleettwixt, but it has been around since the North Sunwell founded the city. Many adult goods and services are offered in the Red Light District, but be aware that some businesses may not act in accordance with Fleettwixt law. The Red Light District is not actively monitored for your safety. Use your discretion.
Mix Village, a series of several ethnic neighborhoods for smaller races within the city that still wish to preserve their heritage and culture, all in close proximity to each other. Goblins, fauns, centaurs, and nagas each call this place home, while there is a traditionalist dwarven community unaffiliated with the larger dwarven population. If you want to experience Fleettwixt like the melting pot it is, Mix Village is right for you.
University District
Central Fleettwixt is one of the most compact, highly developed parts of the city. What once held a small military outpost has blossomed into the capitol of the capital, and all the benefits it has to offer the world.
In recent years, housing prices have shot up more than Highden’s towers, especially in the neighborhood of Blankenville. But even if living here is but a dream, all residents are welcome to visit and work. There are over fifteen schools located within the University District, at all levels and serving all populations.
Notable locations include:
The North Sunwell Company Campus, including the Capitol Building of Fleettwixt and all of Sunwell. Most branches of the company work on this campus, including the Board of Directors. The Fleettwixt military garrison is housed here, too. And great innovation for the future can be found in the Research & Development Department buildings.
Blankenville, a trendy, high-fashion neighborhood that has quickly become one of the most popular parts of the city for North Sunwell employees and research students. New housing coming soon!

The Park of Heroes, the biggest public park in Fleettwixt. It originally called Ingvar Park after the old Imperial Family, but was recently renamed in honor of the great hero and all those who helped to defeat the Manadhmeth Dungeon Core.
Barrier University, a prestigious destination for scholars in all fields. One of the top-ranked universities in the world, especially in the cutting edge of magical research, where graduate students and associate professors work closely with the North Sunwell Company to make a brighter future possible.
Kersh College, a local school that traditionally served young sun elf women from adolescence to adulthood. Today, the school is still dominated by up-and-coming local women, but it is open to all races and genders who want to make an impact on their communities. Free and reduced tuition available on an income level basis.
Portside
The coast of Fleettwixt is quite possibly its most important district. Almost all shipping between the continent and the rest of the Saxonia Dominion starts and ends in Portside, and all new immigrants or travelers are required to enter here first. Over the centuries, Portside has developed into a hub of industry, an icon of labor and the powerful legacy it has left on the city, and continues to leave to this day.
Notable locations include:
The Great Lighthouse of Portside, a guidepost to all those who sail in the Great Bay, and a massive tower whose height rivals that of Highden Tower. Many are struck in awe upon visiting the Great Lighthouse for the first time.
Factory Town, a large row of forges, mills, processing centers, and all the heavy industry the city needs. Of great interest are the golem factories that produce almost one hundred percent of the golems that inhabit Sunwell. A once mystical art has become streamlined to help each and every one of us improve our daily lives.
New Saxonia, the oldest neighborhood whose origin dates back to the very first settlers from the North Sunwell Company. Many of the families who live here can trace their roots all the way back to the original colonists, and still live in those traditional Saxonian-style homes. Most humans of Sunwell live in New Saxonia, though there is a significant population of core elves here as well. You will fit right home here no matter your race, just as long as you’re willing to put in the effort to keep your traditional home up to code.
Prison Island, where incarcerated felons are shipped to serve time for the crimes they have committed.
Uptown
A relatively recent district that has grown greatly in size due to its proximity to both Portside and the University District. The neighborhoods here are nestled right up against the Loeb River, and the homes are absolutely gorgeous. Living here has become a top priority for many families, especially in the historically ethnic enclaves that have become so much more in recent years.
Notable locations include:
Core City, a large neighborhood for elves of all varieties to live and thrive. Specialized elf services can be found in great abundance here, as can preserved ruins from as old as five thousand years ago, when this area was first inhabited. Core elves are the majority here, but sun elves, frost elves, and other groups live here as well.
Loeb, another historical neighborhood. In ancient times was a lowly fishing village for poor sun elves, but it has become a place of wealth and society, for all races to live peacefully by the river.
Enjoytopia, Fleettwixt’s own amusement park. It features advanced mana technology that will immerse you in exciting rides, as well as help you relax with low prices and discounts every month.
Felidtown, a neighborhood home to the small but proud felid race.
Beechhurst
Across the Loeb River, Fleettwixt’s most idyllic, comfortable district is also its agricultural hub. A large percent of all food in the city is grown in Beechhurst, and living here has never been easier with two bridges connecting it to the rest of the city. It’s a wonderful community, with many of its sun elf residents having lived in the area since before the North Sunwell Company even arrived.
Notable locations include:
Silent Beach, a cozy, quiet corner by the northern edge of the city walls.
The Manadhmeth Dungeon
Underneath Fleettwixt is the world’s largest known dungeon. The first floor covers almost the same territory as the city on the surface, and there are are seven more floors below it, each successively smaller and more dangerous.
Since the Dungeon Core has been destroyed, there is now a full-scale settlement campaign underway. Floor 1, traditionally known for being the seedy underbelly of crime in the city, is a major target for growth and increased safety, while Floor 2 has been designated an official nature reserve. When Floors 3 and below are declared pacified, development will begin there, too.
On the surface, there are five entrances to the Manadhmeth Dungeon. They are located in Beechhurst, in Highden, by Castle Fleettwixt, by the Coliseum, and in Factory Town, near Barrier University.
These entrances, created long ago by the Dungeon Core itself, are closely guarded with maximum security in mind. If any monsters are to attempt to attack the city, they will be defeated long before they can pose a threat to any glossal. And if any criminal wishes to use the Manadhmeth Dungeon to advance their causes, they will be stopped with tremendous force.
For Fleettwixt residents, visiting the dungeon has never been easier. Purchase a pass, or find a certified tour guide, and you are free to travel to any authorized floor. Fun, adventure, and shopping await; it’ll be the time of your life.
Beyond Fleettwixt
Outside the city walls to the east there are many peaceful suburbs, as well as a military garrison that provides support to those living outside the city’s protection. Life here can be just as interesting as Fleettwixt itself, provided the right circumstances, although the only access into the city comes from the trains, which can be quite packed in morning and evening. Be careful.
To the south lies the great National Forest, a pristine and carefully managed work of natural beauty and harm-free mana resources.
The Trains of Fleettwixt
There are three train lines that run through Fleettwixt and cover most of the city. The Ethel Line, going east-to-west, the Nyx Line, curving upwards along the Loeb River, and the Pomonok Line which circles around the entire city.
In just a few minutes’ time, you can travel east-to-west on the Ethel Line passing through the Barrier University campus, the factory district, and all the way to Portside on the coast. It goes from city walls to the Great Bay in the time it would take to walk ten blocks. For tourists and students, this may be the only route you need, because it covers all of the most important, exciting parts of the city, and easy transfers to get to the Coliseum or Enjoytopia.
For those with more firm of roots in Fleettwixt, you can navigate up through to the ethnic neighborhoods in the north on the Nyx Line. From Highden, it passes through the North Sunwell Company Campus and terminates in Uptown, right in the middle of Core City. A future extension to Enjoytopia is under construction.
Finally, the Pomonok Line circles across the entire city, touching on nearly two dozen stations in all seven surface districts, even Beechhurst across the river. Trains going both clockwise and counterclockwise pass through the stations every fifteen minutes, and one can circle the entire line in no time at all.
A fourth line concentrated in the southeastern corner of the city is under consideration, but no firm plans have be approved yet.
Enjoy Fleettwixt!
Please, if you have not come to the shining jewel of Sunwell, apply for an ID pass today. If you are already a resident, take the time to find what you enjoy and explore the city even more.
Just remember, the North Sunwell Company is always watching out for you. Fleettwixt will become an even more wonderful place in the future.
North Sunwell! Your partner in life and happiness. What wonders we can achieve together.
