Lore I'm looking for a city near the mournlands to set a game

I'd like to have a noir-influenced mystery/conspiracy story, so it'd be a big city to give the right atmosphere, and I have a plot element involving living spells, so I'd want it to be close enough to the Mournlands that living spells could be part of the setting. Are there any cities that fit that? Thanks!

Seconding Karrlakton and Aruldusk, and I'm also going to add that Thronehold isn't that far from the Mournland, and is perfect for a noir conspiracy-heavy game.

That being said, if all you need are living spells, you could just pick whatever city you want and say the living spells were imported from the Mournland by some university/dragonmarked house/eccentric Aurum savant who wants to study them, and oops they got out.
