The beautiful city of Goldwell is the heart of Arkyla’s great alliance, home to the Ten Knights and the Crimsongate family. Even the palest moonlight cannot wash out the warm tones of the brick roads and marble buildings and ornate bridges, all ranging between buttery and fiery gold.
Castle Goldwell stands in the eastern corner of the city, nestled against the great walls encircling all of Goldwell. Flags bearing the ivory mare and ebony wolf standard of the Crimsongates adorn its elegant towers, and a statue of Fearryn Crimsongate stands at the center of its grand, open courtyard. City and castle guards alike also bear the Crimsongates’ crest on their golden tunics, making both their authority and allegiance clear.
There are four districts, or quarters, to the city: the Merchant Quarter, the center of trade; the Gardens, filled with parks and fountains and gardens; the Nobles’ Court, where the wealthy families live; and the Stone Quarter, home to the poor, and any who just wish for a simple life.
