The titans might very well be the poor workforce of the city. There is A LOT of jobs they simple can't do due to their size. And just to be able to eat, they need to spend way, way more than the more average sized races. In cities, space cost, especially in the center of the city. As others have pointed out, even a single bed would take up an enormous amount of city dwelling space.

So I think the titants would be mostly found in the outskirts of the city, maybe even outside the city proper. "There's plenty of room for them out there, it's for their best. For everyone best really". They wouldn't be able to afford new clothing very often either.

But they would still be indispensable for any large construction projects. Like a church or castle or city fortifications. And also for mining/harvesting and transporting building materials.


This could also be a plot-point. Some titants might feel they are not treated properly by the small folk. They do the most heavy jobs, and really the city couldn't grow as fast as it do without them.

On the other side you might have the faries who need very little in space and food. And who could easily afford new and fancy clothing and jewelry. And they might be able to do much of the same work as an average SM person (thanks to magic). So they might live very well, with more than enough food and large homes (relatively) and other luxuries.


... nothing builds plot faster than class difference, expect race-differences. And when you combine them; oh boy!
