Kiban

Market = yes. The second largest settlement in the Kingdom of Kaldor, Kiban dominates the trade of eastern Kaldor and is a center of trade with Azadmere. Built as a stone keep around 300, the castle was constructed between 605 and 653. Less than 25 years ago, Kiban was only a small market town with an impressive fortification. In 703, the previous Earl of Balim obtained a charter from King Miginath to wall the settlement. The wall is still under construction but is expected to be finished in 723. Troda Dariune, the current Earl of Balim, is also Chancellor of the Exchequer and a cousin of the king. An intelligent, good-humored man, Troda, 47, has a strong claim to the throne should he choose to press it. Traditionally, he and his clan have been strong supporters of the royal clan.
