Districts
Located in the heart of Menaphos is the plaza. Despite not being one of the 4 Districts, it still has a few key features.
-
Lodestone:
The easiest route to venture to the city can be found here at the Lodestone. As with all other lodestones, you must activate it before you can use it. It is recommended to activate it during The Jack of Spades.
-
Heart of the Plaza:
In the center of the Plaza we find a large statue in likeness of the Pharaoh. Around it we can find Challenge Mistress Rashida, the Impling collector, and several citizens.
-
Guarding the gates:
On the East side of the Plaza is Coenus, he stands guard of all those leaving Menaphos across the bridge to their neighboring city of Sophanem. Until completion of 'Phite Club, you will not be able to reenter Menaphos using the bridge.
South of the Plaza can be found the Port District. Here we find various oceanic trades taking place.
