At the heart of the Citadel is the Castle, which is made in a gothic style. The Castle is the source of all magic. The Castle has four wings, one for each cardinal direction.

The north wing contains all of the personal and leisure chambers of the royals. Ornate tapestries hang down on the walls, and across the stone floor is a burgundy-colored carpet. Guards are stationed only at every entrance to the wing, but not withing the wing itself. Music may often be heard through here. Only royals and their guests are allowed in.

The east wing contains the personal chambers of more important officials and the guest chambers. The throne room is also contained in this wing. The decor is not as elegant as in the north wing. The tapestries are older or of lower quality. The furniture is not as plush. Instead of having guard stationed at the entrance, guards traverse the corridors.

The south wing contains the servants' quarters and the kitchens. This wing is sparsely decorated and warmer than the rest. Nobles scarcely enter. There is also a servants' entrance.

The west wing of the castle contains the dungeons, armory, and fortifications. Nobles and diplomats enter through this door in an attempt to intimidate them. This is also where the drawbridge to cross the moat is located, so it is the most likely to be attacked.

A portcullis blocks the drawbridge to the castle off. Beyond the portcullis is the Capital City, which is surrounded by large stone walls, containing only one gate for entry and exit.

The city's buildings are made almost entirely out of wood, making them catch fire easily. Shops are typically located on the ground level while residences are on the floor above. The larger roads in the city are cobbled, but alleyways tend to be made of dirt.

Twice a year are festivals, in which numerous wares are sold to people. Much money and frivolities are enjoyed. There are also monthly markets, when artisans and merchants may sell their goods to the people.
