A town famous for one of the best law schools in Alaria. Scholars come from across the Middle Sea to study here. Bestacian legal experts are in high demand—they've made careers out of finding loopholes and crafting airtight contracts.
The school is also where Bestacia's strait policy is written. With the Mossy Mountains cutting the republic off from the Telphineas Strait, Bestacia cannot answer Watar's anchorage fee with ships, so it answers with advocates, and the advocates come from Pastrova. Its jurists carry the anchorage case to the Alliance courts, where they have twice won a ruling that the fee is unlawful and twice watched Watar pay the fine and keep collecting. It is the kind of problem the school relishes: a clean argument, an unappealable verdict, and an opponent who ignores both.
