Kronstad

A Fortress against the winter, against darkness, a Fortress of Mankind

The great Fortress of the North, Kronstad. Capital of Thortyr and a safe heaven amongst the desolated and unforgiving land that is the North. It is located on the edge of the cliffs of the Frozen Peak Mountains, towering above the frozen landscape.

Kronstad is the oldest standing and safest bastion mankind has ever built in Manniskar, with walls capable of withstanding earthquakes and avalanches. A few rivers run in the inside of the mountain leading all the way down to the The Under Realm, providing the fortress with fresh water and food that can be found in the depths of the caves. This makes the city immune to any sieges whilst it's defenses can ward off armies of hundreds of thousands, that is, given said armies are even capable of getting to the top of the mountain.

The city is also the headquarters of The Order, an organization made up of elite warriors and sages that work together to bring order into the world, fighting against magic and keeping the balance in the realm.
