Eldoria
Eldoria, the capital of Aldervale, was once a thriving and independent city. However, since its conquest by the Order of Suppression, it has undergone significant changes and now stands as a stark representation of the Order's rule.
1. Orderwatch Garrison: The heart of Eldoria is dominated by the Orderwatch Garrison, a massive fortress where the city's enforcers are stationed. It's from here that the Orderwatch conducts its patrols, arrests, and surveillance, ensuring that the citizens of Eldoria remain in strict compliance with the Order's mandates.
2. Sanctum of Compliance: A grand temple dedicated to the Order's deity, Absolute Order, looms in the city center. The clergy of the Order have established a powerful presence in Eldoria, conducting religious ceremonies and indoctrinating the populace. The Sanctum is an imposing structure with towering spires and a large central hall where adherents gather for sermons.
3. The Citadel: At the northern end of Eldoria lies the Citadel, a massive black stone fortress that serves as the regional headquarters of the Order of Suppression. The Order's local leadership, including archmagisters and high-ranking enforcers, operate from here. It is a place of immense authority and secrecy, from where the Order directs its policies and actions across the province.
4. Oppression Square: Once a bustling marketplace, Oppression Square is now a place of public punishment and indoctrination. Citizens are compelled to attend events held in the square, which include the public humiliation of dissenters, speeches glorifying the Order, and demonstrations of Orderwatch might.
5. Forbidden Archives: Eldoria is home to a smaller version of the Silent Archive, known as the Forbidden Archives. Here, texts deemed heretical or seditious are locked away and closely guarded. These archives serve as a reminder that any dissenting knowledge is not tolerated.
6. Magic Sequestration Ward: One of the grim reminders of the Order's rule is the Magic Sequestration Ward. This district is used to segregate and monitor those who are known to possess magical abilities or have any affiliation with magic. The inhabitants of this district live under constant surveillance and restrictions.
7. Faithful's Quarters: These are the residences of the loyal citizens who have embraced the Order's ideology. The Faithful's Quarters are monitored for any signs of dissent or magical activities, ensuring that the Order's rule is maintained within its own strongholds.
8. Surveillance Network: Eldoria, like Veridia, is under constant surveillance. Informants and patrols are present everywhere, making it exceedingly difficult to evade the watchful eyes of the Order.
9. Reeducation Centers: The city has several reeducation centers where those who resist the Order's rule are sent for intense indoctrination and, in some cases, public reeducation sessions often ending in executions.
Eldoria, once a city with a rich history and diverse culture, has been transformed into a bastion of the Order's rule. The citizens of Aldervale who once cherished their independence and magical heritage now find themselves living in an environment of fear and strict control. Resistance continues to smolder beneath the surface, and there are whispers of a lost heir who may hold the key to changing the fate of Eldoria and the entire realm.
