'''Port Arenhold''' is the largest port in the [[Pelervar/Council of the Free Cities|Free Cities]], built on the strait that joins the [[Pelervar/Zahari Passage|Zahari Passage]] to the [[Pelervar/Inner Sea|Inner Sea]]. It is a [[Pelervar/Membership Tiers of the Free Cities|Free City]] by charter, with a full Council seat, but it is unlike any other member: it is jointly ruled under treaty and functions as a protectorate of the elven realm of [[Pelervar/Elandris|Elandris]] in all matters touching the Inner Sea.

== The Two Bloods Seat ==
Rule rests with the '''Two Bloods Seat''' — a human civic seat and an elven treaty seat, sharing authority. Local magistrates appointed by the Seat handle the city's own affairs, while elven treaty authority governs anything bearing on Inner Sea access, elven treaty rights, and the sacred maritime boundaries to the north. The city is kept by its City Watch and harbour guard and by the '''Twin Spears''', a militia of elves and humans together; [[Pelervar/Elandris|Elandris]] treaty patrols answer for the Inner Sea.

This double nature is the great fact of Port Arenhold's politics. Its human merchant families would have it treated as any other Free City; the elven authorities hold that the [[Pelervar/Inner Sea|Inner Sea]] treaties place firm limits on what the city may decide for itself. The two work together because they must, and the seam between them never quite closes.
