Silverleaf

Silverleaf is a town about an hour by train downriver from Portston. Many of the residents of Silverleaf are skilled workers employed in Portston who wish to live away from the hubbub of the city. Silverleaf is named after the distinctively colored plants that grow there. This effect is due to an underground deposit of mineral that leaches into Silverleaf's groundwater. A large part of Silverleaf's industry is farming flowers and other decorative plants which are valued for their metallic silver hue. However, the groundwater is poisonous for people, and thus Silverleaf's water supply must be piped in from Portston.
