Blurb

This is the main town and effective capital of Anguish. Most players arrive at the Inn here when they log into AA. This town is also where the famous Crossroads (X) is, which is the starting point for most directions given to you. It is the home of the fighter, rogue, mage and cleric class. Various important shops can be found here, the Commodities Exchange where newbies can get XP and coins, the main chat boards and so on. The Ancient Anguish administration, the Senate, is also place here.
