Ashtan

Ashtan, once known as the Merchant City of Sapience, is now no longer the bustling and vibrant settlement it was sculpted to be. Settled amidst the sprawling oceans, the city's three isles, the Isles of Tides, Dusk and Trees have now fallen under the occupation of the Drakkenmont Empire and further razed into smoking ruins by the various dragons of old: the mighty Iraneth, Quoloth, Bazzalth, Naloth and Verioth.

Led to victory by Polemarch Andalso and Marzpawns Ishixan and Zorusthi, the Dreikathian armies of Ursal swordsmen have stationed themselves within their conquered city and have started setting up camp, proceeding to the task of harvesting Ylem.

The Dreikathian Outpost, as it is now known, is a buzzing military encampment, the grounds tightly patrolled by guards and peppered with newly set-up supply yards, barracks and watchstations on the Isles of Dusk and Trees. Circling the Isle of Tides, however, is an ongoing construction of a tall wall, each section in various stages of completion.

The red and gold flag of the Drakkenmont Empire flies proudly above the conquered city, a final but stark insult to the vanquished City of Ashtan.
