The city of Lome was the traditional seat of the Dukes of Alon and the capital of the Duchy of Alon. After the House of Alon ended (allegedly) with embarrassing demise of Duke Albas the Ill-Advised in 216 Valanthe II, it was ruled by an uneasy triumvirate of nobles.

Lome was known for its grain exports, banking houses, mercenary companies, and its bustling slave market. Ardrick's brothers from the monastery of Kord were sold here.

A major center of shipping and commerce, it was also home to an active printing industry, producing such influential broadsheets as Modern Rake and War-Ships Biannual.
