Cerulean Citadel

• Constructed from gleaming blue-grey stone quarried from the distant Mistfang Hills, the Citadel’s walls shimmer with an almost liquid quality, reflecting the swirling waters and mists around it.
• The palace complex sprawls over a rocky promontory surrounded by channels, with graceful arching bridges and canals weaving between the Citadel’s towers and gardens.
• Its tall spires and soaring arches mimic the forms of sea creatures—vaulted ceilings shaped like crashing waves, columns carved to resemble twisting kelp, and balustrades curling like the fins of leviathans.
• The highest tower, the Azure Spire, pierces the fog, crowned with a crystal dome that glows faintly with inner light, said to hold the royal family’s sacred relics.

Interior and Atmosphere

• Inside, the halls are cool and echoing, filled with the scent of salt and incense.
• Vast murals depicting Kalakeri’s legendary heroes, battles with monstrous beings of the marsh, and ritual ceremonies cover the walls.
• The throne room features a dais carved from a single block of cerulean stone, with a throne shaped like a coiled sea serpent whose eyes gleam with enchanted sapphires.
• Secret passages and submerged chambers beneath the palace connect to the labyrinthine waterways, allowing secretive arrivals or escapes.

• The royal family of Kalakeri—regarded as semi-divine or cursed, depending on whom one asks—reside here, cloaked in mystery and ancient traditions.
• The Citadel is not just a seat of power but a center of arcane rituals and eldritch pacts, where the family communes with spirits said to dwell deep beneath the waters.
• Guards clad in scaled armor patrol the walls, wielding tridents and harpoons, vigilant against threats from within and beyond the mists.
