Establishing a capital


After a short siege of Ithmong, the city of tyrants, Queen Zaranda, Marilyn Haresdown, and Tardeth Llanistaph capture would-be king Julian Gallowglass. He was taken alive and unharmed and was sentenced to the Cloister of St. Ramedar until his rehabilitation or death.
While spending the winter in this city, Zaranda declared that would be her new capital and Gallowglass Hall would be restored to its original glory as Faerntarn, the castle of the Queen's Dynasty.

The Great Queens of Tethyr ruled well from that castle, and I would see it become a castle again. Their spirits and your support guide me, and I hope to be a good ruler for you all. Gone are the days of Ithmong, city of tyrants, and rise up Darromar, City of Queens!
— Queen Zaranda Star

Ithmong was thus named for the first king of Tethyr, Some questioned why the Queen's City should be named for a king, but Zaranda simply noted that the just queens of the past would be honored by her actions and rulership, and the just kings by her projects.
