 Black Sands (40,000; formerly 21,000):  Volcanic rock has made the beach here as dark as soot, similar to Port Xenn. On Ash Bay, this is the home of a former PNUgen test range now run by Ketsurui Fleet Yards under SARA for mecha testing. After the Battle of Yamatai, many residents from nearby Port Xenn migrated to Black Sands looking for shelter and work, forcing the town to quickly adapt its municipal services to the influx of people. It is within Melanchol Prefecture. Home of [[stararmy:bases:black_sands_test_range]]. Black Sands (40,000; formerly 21,000):  Volcanic rock has made the beach here as dark as soot, similar to Port Xenn.

-[[location:uesureyan_fields]] (590,000):  A massive civilian starport and military facility. It resembles Kyoto's military district in many ways, with its many squat buildings, but does not go as far underground as it or KnI.

 Lorrheim (258,000):  Largest city in Blackport Prefecture. Iconic for its "ashen" grey and black architecture, it is a popular destination for local tourists. Home of the rare Lorrfolk, who tend to occupy the northern end of the city and keep to themselves. Lorrheim (258,000):  Largest city in Blackport Prefecture.

 Pagoda no Uesu (60,000):  The city Uesu built (inside Melanchol Prefecture). It is a circular city surrounded by enormous gardens, a symbolic (and sometimes disturbing) note to visitors of the grandeur of the former Uesureyan Empire. The gardens sometimes contain violent creations and accidents from PNUgen. Many of Yamatai's small clans and villages are within a few dozen kilometers of PnU, though most of the city's population are PNUgen employees (many left when PNUgen became defunct). The city's centerpiece is the 13-story imperial pagoda. Pagoda no Uesu (60,000):  The city Uesu built (inside Melanchol Prefecture).

-[[location:winsonville|Winsonville]] (6,000; formerly 12,000):  A modest trading post inside Xiuluria Prefecture, north of Lake Xiulu and south of Medigeshrin Bay and nestled at the edge of the Kinen-rin forest. Both the forest and the city are rumored to be haunted. The city was decimated by the fallout from the Battle of Yamatai in YE 33 and the subsequent toxic fumes from the fires left in the path of destruction. The Kinen-rin forest is a tourist attraction for its morbid history and its unique flora. +[[places:winsonville|Winsonville]] (6,000; formerly 12,000):  A modest trading post inside Xiuluria Prefecture, north of Lake Xiulu and south of Medigeshrin Bay and nestled at the edge of the Kinen-rin forest.

-[[location:jskita]] (900,000; formerly 930,000):  On the northern tip of Jhuniata Prefecture, this merchant city has always acted as a gate to the Ice Coast and the eastnorthern reaches. It was surrounded by small factories and other commercial interests before the Battle of Yamatai, with several off-planet companies keeping outposts here because of the low corporate tax rates. Though much of its infrastructure was [[http://stararmy.com/roleplay/viewtopic.php?p=118072#p118072|destroyed]] in the battle, many of its corporate interests have injected money into its reconstruction.+[[places:jskita]] (900,000; formerly 930,000):  On the northern tip of Jhuniata Prefecture, this merchant city has always acted as a gate to the Ice Coast and the eastnorthern reaches.
