Highsummit
"Highsummit is the only place in Bralor where you can see the history as you walk through the city. They preserved the architecture of the time and ensure they stand the tests of time. You can find the original shelter tunnels from the Great Fire, the original expansion of the city-state, and the transformation into a kingdom. They didn't want to forget the adversity that was endured to get us here, or the mistakes that nearly tore us apart." - Norvah Clearstone, Royal Historian.
Defences
The city is encircled by a wide moat and reinforced walls, the guards comprise of both martial and magic defenders.
Infrastructure
The settlement started as a small band of refugees and would grow thanks to the nearby lake, it provided fresh water and a means to grow crops. As the city grew they would make artificial rivers to help with irrigation, in time the need for some of these artificial rivers would disappear, they would then build a dam and repurpose the land. One of these Dams can be seen overlooking one of the biggest festival grounds in the city.
Districts
The Royal district is home to all the government buildings: Royal Estate, Council Chambers, Arbitors Chamber, and the Royal Vaults. The Council Chambers are by far the most ornate complex within the city, it has one single spire ascending into the sky with three brick paths leading to three entrances at the base. On either side of the paths are government buildings, these are the bureaucratic heart of the kingdom. Surrounding the Royal district are parade fields that serve as gathering areas for official events, as well place for major celebrations.
