A Bit About Our Lands
Lamport Hills is a suburb of Malton on the border of the high Moorlands located in the northern section of the city. Lamport Hills contains the eastern half of the Southall Mansion, and its people call themselves Lamportians. Before the quarantine, Lamport had a small population and was a very rural area with small farms. Additionally, it sported various hunting lodges at the edge of the mountains. Later, the suburb developed with the times, but still keeps elements of its tradition with old pubs, schools, and some ancient houses. Lamportians try to keep to Lamport traditional by only venturing into other suburbs for uncommon items.
