Swordhold
Swordhold is a keep and tower town in the eastern half of Vanreth. Nestled near the northern riverlands, Swordhold has little to offer that Ardin or Silvermoon don't already. Except its position near the Starlit bridge and away from Orelin make it a prime spot for anyone wishing to cut off forces attempting to skirt the Palatine Bridges via the House End Forest. Swordhold then works primarily as a spot contested, now by Houses Sunbrace, Coldcrest, and Duskshard. Defended against drake attack by large walls and ballista towers, Swordholds a defensive location equipped with a strong keep at its center - the Drakkenfall. A hefty nightlife and underground have seen Swordhold build a reputation as Vanreths capital for illegal trade.
House Duskshard has managed Swordhold for years, their people entirely loyal to them. They see much wealth through treaties with houses seeking to use them as a place for positioning in the east.
