The metropolis of Anvil is Cyrodiil's largest port on the Abecean Sea and one of its largest cities. It serves as the capital of the Kingdom of Anvil as well as the location of their headquarters of Goldstone. Anvil's location at the terminus of the Gold Road has led to it becoming a major trade hub for the entire province of Cyrodiil, serving to connect the Imperial homeland to the myriad ports of the Empire's other provinces.
The city itself is divided into six quarters: Fort Telodrach, the Garden Quarter, Goldstone, Little Arenthia, the Marina, and the Port Quarter.

Getting There and Around[edit]
For those within Cyrodiil, the simplest and cheapest way to reach Anvil would be to walk; the city lies at the at the terminus of the Gold Road, so simply following the road east will eventually lead you to the city. That being said, travelers with gold to spare that are seeking a less arduous methods of transport still have many options available to them: caravaners in both Hal Sadek and Brina Cross can transport you outside Anvil's gates, while Rexus Serperian can transport you back should you wish; likewise, shipmasters in Archad, Thresvy, and Charach are able to bring you into Anvil's marina aboard their boats, with Saquerilla offering the return service; and finally, Yinassi at the local Guild of Mages is able to facilitate teleportation between the the local guildhall and those in Brina Cross and Charach.
For those seeking to reach to Anvil from more distant lands, Cascus Daro in Skyrim's KarthwastenSHOTN and Titus Corilex in Morrowind's Ebonheart[nb1] can both be spoken with to procure room and board aboard a vessel headed to Anvil. Conversely, the Port Quarter's Annine Golden-Blade, near the Blue Raven, and Kaltan Doralis, near the Hearthrend, can arrange transport to Karthwasten and Ebonheart, respectively.
Navigation between Anvil's quarters is aided by four gondoliers found across the city, each of which being able transport you to any of the other three. They can be found outside the Saint Amiel Officers' Club in the Garden Quarter, next to the canal in Little Arenthia, on the Marina docks, and outside the Chapel of Tranquil Sky in the Port Quarter.
Places of Interest Around Anvil[edit]
Anvil is a gateway to the Abecean Sea, and the adventurous might find plenty in the archipelagos and reefs lying to the city's west.
