These traits gave it the titles, "The City of a Thousand Portals." The City was ruled and overseen by the Archfey Lady Janus, Queen of Doors.
About
The Cerulean City is a floating city built out of cerulean stone that travels around the vast regions of the Feywild. It is one of the largest and most prominent planar ports in the realm due to the relative safety provided to all travelers and the order maintained by Lady Janus. While the laws of the city may be strict, trade between planar travelers has prospered. Throughout the city are hundreds of portals leading to many different planes, all maintained by the magic of Lady Janus. Portal travel throughout the city is heavily monitored and travelers require specific tokens or invitations to use specific portals. Those in violation in the cities Rules of Passage must stand trial before the Accord of Janus.
