Caen (Kah)

An ancient Draconic city was built into the side of the Rivell mountains, When the slave revolts broke out, refugees used it as a sanctuary, with The Purple knights using it as a staging point. It became the base of The Purple knights with the old draconic town being renovated and brought back. It was eventually expanded as it was still used as a sanctuary in times of crisis. Built into rings going up the mountainside, each ring has a high wall protecting it with a gatehouse off to the side. This has meant the city has never fallen, though was abandoned under Phervian rule, while different rings have different social positioning, movement between them is available to anyone, within reason.

Architecture
