Haraway

Haraway is a village of 2,000 residents. Despite its small size, Haraway plays and outsized role on the world stage in terms of finance, science, and education. In recent years, Haraway has been drifting into the orbit of its more powerful neighbour, Commons. Haraway is home to the famed Haraway Markets, a library, and state-of-the-art enchanting facilities.

Haraway's greatest vulnerability to fire comes with its somewhat antiquated housing stock. Most houses use stone foundations and elements, but are built largely of timber, and fireplaces are common. None of the houses exhibit any special fire protection measures. On the other hand, residential density is low, with significant space between buildings, the stone-and-glass library could act as a central refuge. Pockets of risk exist in the community, but overall vulnerability is low. Additional points of concern are centralised heavy-industry, which could cause temporary disruptions in trade and perhaps localised fires.

Haraway currently "enjoys" a relatively cool climate, and it would take considerable global temperature rises to pose a serious fire hazard here.
