The Iron Keep

At the edge of the Eeerie Forest in the Shadow of the The Eperom Wall, stands the Iron Keep. After the Teuta Eisom returned to Pangeria, the Iron Keep was constructed after the local settlements was massacred by an unknown element from the nearby forest.

Demographics

Population
Tueta Eisom 90%
Bankers of Kampala 1%
Eperom Mari TC 5%
Sunus Te Frontonce 4%
  While the Iron Keep is mainly a miltary installation for the Tueta Eisom, it still holds a moderate sized trading hub. Outside the western gate is a future expansion of the keep that currently houses a small contingent of Sons.

Government

Unlike other fortresses or keeps the Iron Keep is governed solely by a Jarl. Normally forts and keeps are governed by a Gothi with the assistance of a Jarl. With the keep being the most northern settlements for the Teuta and the proximity to a hostile area, the governance of the keep and the northern territories is given to a Jarl.

Defences

The 30 foot high outer wall is constructed completely out of iron with weaving stone staircases leading to countless murder holes where the Tueta's elite archers defend the Keep. The eastern part of the Keep is based on a steep rock outcropping while the north, south and west sides are on flatter grounds. Behind the outer wall lies the inner Keep which is also completely constructed out of iron with iron scaffolding to reach the higher levels of the walls. Inside the inner keep contains the oldest neighborhoods of the keep.

Infrastructure

Constructed almost fully out of Iron. Only the buildings inside the keep are built out of stone.

Districts

Iron Heart

Home to the workers that maintain and expand the Iron Keep. The Iron Heart is one of the two neighborhoods that has homes constructed out of not only stone but also out of iron. The Iron Heart was partly constructed out of iron to better protect the valuable workers that maintained the keep.

Fisherman's Cove

Referred to as Fisherman's Cove by the Tueta, this neighborhood is home to the merchants of the Eperom Mari TC and their shops. The name came from the first Tueta's who believed the Company to be a group of fisherman. Coincidently the Iron Keep is land locked.
