Zomond
The capital city of Cedora queendom. The city was established by The children of the northern forest as a base in preparation for conflict between Matoir and the chimeric lord. It is built at a point where the river splits into two streams. This was done as a means of protecting the settlement. The settlement developed from a fortified base to an expansive city and eventually center for the development of arcane weaponry.
Defences
The city is surrounded by a high wall. Through the wall lead three gates. One in the west and two in the east. The western gate is the most heavily guarded as the outside of it is not protected by the river. Each gate has a small fort serving as a guardhouse.
Districts
The oldest district in the city is the Easter District (also known as the Arcane or Sky Reching District). The district is built on an elevated part of the city. The district concentrates most of the magical history of the city.
There are several other smaller districts inside the walls of the city. The fort district in the northwestern part surrounds the fort of the city and houses the nobility of the city as well as the academy. The Southern Trade District contains the South Square. The central district in the center and the northern gate district.
There are also two districts outside of the walls. These are the grain district in the west housing workers for the farms and the southern outside district which is the poorest and the most packed.
