Castagre

Castagre is a frontier town in the Kingdom of Tordrym. It acts as a bulwark of defense against the orc hordes and centaur tribes of the Deep Fields.

Government

Castagre, on the north-western border of the Kingdom of Tordrym, is considered the border between the frontier of Tordrym and the Deepfields, an expanse of lush, rolling green fields that are made dangerous by the territorial orc hordes and centaur herds that roam it. Both groups are migratory and nomadic and have violent clashes when they converge. They even in-fight for territory at time, especially among the orcs, where one horde may fight for dominance over an area and absorb other hordes into it.
All of this is bad news for the defenders in Castagre, whose duty it is to prevent both groups from entering the frontiers and raiding more defenseless Tordrym settlements to its south and east. To accomplish this goal, Castagre acts as the home base for what is a series of many castles built along what Tordrym claims as its border, even into the heights of the Ruzgar Rise mountain range south of it. News between the castles travels primarily by wyvern-back.
Due to the exceptional amount of attention the frontier lands needed to remain safe for the settlers, the region was given stewardship to a duke, making the region a duchy. The king in Rabanastre focuses his attention on defense against the ever-expansionist Eposians to the south, while the duke concerns himself with the defense of the north. Despite Sinuseptre being the larger city in the duchy, Castagre is its capital and where the duke resides.
