Capital of Caillah

Codura is the capital city of Caillah on the continent of Caia. It is located on the northern coastline, and is one of the largest and oldest settlements in the country. The wide, sandy beaches nearby, called the Landings, are where the Caillish first stepped foot on what was then known as Vasethal, in 2394 EA.
The city started out as nothing more than a temporary camp, a base from which to launch explorations - and conquests - of the new land. With the discovery of rich iron deposits nearby, Codura grew into a mining and smithing town, vital for providing the ongoing war efforts with weapons and armour. It also remained a vital port, one of several along the coast that allowed the Caillish to bring in important supplies and extra men across the Erish Channel. It was used as the location to crown the first Caillish monarch, but did not become recognised as the capital city until 3387 EA, after the first capital, Dacren, was all-but-lost in the Great Fire.
Today, Codura is still a hub of industry and trade, but also one of religion, with more than fifty churches dedicated to the Faith. This includes The Pale Bones of Our Lady, the largest church in all of Caillah and the centre of the Caillish Orthodoxy.
