══════════════════════════════════════════

Drefedell Castle

Located in Daavale, the largest and most populated City, Drefedell's Castle sits in the center of the peninsula. It is a safe castle from outside attacks, though guests are welcome almost any time of year. Although they cannot go into all parts of the castle, the Queen of Drefedell tries to keep open ties to all races for political and social reasons. Each wing of the castle is decorated to represent a different country and race, making all feel at home in Drefedell's lands.

Throne Room

The Throne Room is open for all to enjoy and enter. Typically guests will make request of the Queen here, and when in meeting with one or more parties, the Throne Room is closed off until the meeting is finished. Most often, though, guests come to pay homage to the Queen or simply to gaze upon the castle's beauty.

Queens and Kings Gambler's Lodge

Located in Dehilume, the Queens and Kings Gambler's Lodge is known for its rough and tumble crowd. All are welcome to try their luck here, with plenty of drink for purchase. Elves find the wine and ale here suited for them (and their light weight selves), and so many adventurers from other Kingdoms gather here to try to win big. The Lodge is heavily taxed, but with the tax, comes protection from mercenaries ensuring the vagabonds here don't get too rowdy.

From The Ashes Tavern

Dyath Aethel's From The Ashes Tavern is a large establishment built in the middle of the City. It is a four-story building, by far the largest tavern in the Kingdom. Because of its location, one does not have to travel far to visit the various locations the City has to offer. The Tavern does not allow Beastmen to enter unless they are in a Party.

Wrathful Griffin Library

Located in Zlirond, many flock here to learn more about the Kingdom. This is where a lot of the more advanced quests are located for adventurers. Books here are more advanced than other Kingdoms, and the rumors of the Knights are plentiful here. The Library is known to be quite the odd place for travelers, though, as many reports of moving books and misplaced wares are bountiful. Is it the work of thieves or mischievous children? Or are there more sinister secrets located within the walls of this Library?

Doranes Festival Grounds

Citizens around the country enter Doranes to go to the Festival Grounds. This is where everyone celebrates the Kingdom's many holidays, and party to their hearts content. The Festival Grounds are very well protected, and any caught trying to harm another or steal are severely punished. For this reason, Doranes remains one of the safest Cities to visit, although they are not as big of a City as others.

The Archives

The Archives are located in Drougow. These Archives hold the location of the Silver Knight's resting place, or at least there are rumors that the location exists. Only one person per party is allowed to enter at a time, and all records are forbidden from leaving the property. The punishment for disobeying such rule is death.

The Silver Hot Springs

Located in Nodsads, The Silver Hot Springs are a vacationer's dream, serving any race of creature that seeks its healing and warm properties. With such warm waters and flowing springs from each side, the tourist attraction here makes the City's economy boom. The Hot Springs are open Year Round, though the primary attraction is in winter, when the rest of the land is cold.

Drefedell Detris Gardens

Detris Gardens are located in Iylindas. These gardens are a tribute to their Goddess, who has blessed the land with fertile soul and beautiful flora. Small quests can be found here, such as helping care for the gardens or the animals that call it home. Or, open aired picnics can be had, or simply relaxing by the water fountains that also help water the plants. Many offerings are left by the Goddess statues as a thanks for her care of the City.

Mirrored Mountain

Located North of Drougow, it is rumored that a dragon unlike any Agrogoth has seen before, has tried to lay ruin to the city Drougowians call home. This dragon is not a mini dragon, but a far larger beast. Because of the Mirrored Mountain, and the cold weather of the city, this is the least populated city. The Mirrored Mountain is a treacherous place to travel, and few have tried to ascend its slope. It is freezing Year Round, with temperatures that rival any natural winter.
