Ventèn

Ventèn (Bantazi pronunciation:[vənˈdɛn]) is a major city in Eastern Aradór, located on the eastern bank of river Eduin, at the confluence with river Hentwen. The city is an important centre of economy for the region lying to the east of it - Eastmarch - and serves as a gateway to the Between-Rivers regions to the west and the lands around the capital city Araero to the south.

The city of Ventèn has been recorded with this name since the 13th century, when it was founded as a border fort by General Vente (Wenté) of the Kingdom of Araero. However, the settlement had existed at the place for almost a thousand years before that.

The city is home to the well-preserved fort of Vente, dating from the early 14th century, as well as the Bridge of Ventèn (Tel Venteni), a major structure from the 24th century.
