Khorim

A city of special significance, is it located on the cusp of the Godcleave, the massive natural chasm tearing open the mountains of Isturoth. It is naturally the seat of power for the Blade's Edge of Kohra, as it is believed to be a site of great religious significance.

Guilds and Factions

This city is home to the noble Blade's Edge of Kohra who have their headquarters in the north-eastern part of town. This is the epicentre of all Kohra worship in Isturoth, so it is often a site of pilgrimage for many in the order.   Because of the association, it is also frequented by those in orders that worship other gods in the pantheon, though Kohra is the main attraction.

Points of interest

The Godfall / Godcleave

The main point of interest in the city is of course the natural rift the settlement is perched at the top of (see The Godfall).    

Kohra's Ascension

This is the most important temple of Kohra's worship in the entire kingdom. It is the headquarters for the Blade's Edge of Kohra, home to the Golden One, and a library of religious knowledge.   Many see this temple as the primary signifier of Isturian servitude to the god, a sure-sign they are worth their divine protection.

Tourism

Even those who only observe casual worship of Kohra (or none at all) travel for miles around just to catch a glimpse of the mighty rift in the earth and the city dedicated to the god who carved it.

Geography

Most of the city is perched upon the north-eastern edge of the rift, while a small cluster of residences and a watchtower are situated on the south-western side of the massive bridge that spans the entire chasm, often referred to as the "rift-pass bridge" or "rift-crossing".
