The Gold-Crown Castle

"I swear being near the place gives merchants entitlement." Borgrin said, stroking his beard. The elegant red and white castle stood over the houses and shops within Alaman's walls, and from within the towers and keep halls stood the leaders of the city, planning each deal and harboring each contract with their political neighbors.
The Gold-Crown castle is where one moves to when they are chosen to be one of The Gold Crowns of Alaman. It is a fortress within a city of merchants; as beautiful as it is defensible. The elaborate designs of the walls and towers are met with constant watch from elite knights hired from the Blue Hammers and the powerful private mages.

Purpose / Function

The castle is the residence and seat of power for The Gold Crowns of Alaman. It is here where the council of merchants, mercenary lords, and social leaders gather with the five to discuss the matters of the city, as well as talk about changing laws and taxes. 
The castle is also the garrison of the The League of the Chalice, an elite group of knights who serve the Gold Crowns and protect them and the city.

Architecture

Like most buildings in Alaman, the castle design is stone walls, consisting of various towers with a central keep.
