Saint Vance
Saint Vance is the siege of the Inquisition of Sigmar, it was built around the black fortress and now stands as an important strategic point because it is the connector of the two main rivers in Vostroya, the Quirell river coming from Tam Phocai in the West, and the Vodka river coming from the East.
After the Conquest of Furio, the city is now guarded by a gargantuan flying fortress that is presumed to be foreign, because of the different architecture. the fortress is known as Castle Drakenhof. Saint Vance is also known for its ever clouded skies, making it a grim and sombre place. There are rumors of abductions and murders caused by something that is not human, and that drinks blood, a lot of it.
