Westlight Castle
Looking west along the river, one can see the silhouette of Westlight Castle bold on the Asure sky beyond. It stood there as if conjured from the storybook of a child. The castle walls are the strongest thing for miles around, yet when inspected closely it is built of stones of varying sizes and shapes, each one unique. But fit together as if those who built were set on perfection as if they really loved what they made. From a distance, it is a uniform grey, from up close it is a mosaic of humble rocks. Together they are a castle, they were walls made in the new founding to protect a community, to echo with laughter, and be the shelter they needed for the millennia to come without the Cinntaneth empire to protect them.
Defenses
The Castle is flanked on three sides by the river and protected on the rear by a moat and drawbridge. Numerous battlements and murder holes are present throughout the exterior walls and are patrolled by a constant watch of at least four guards equipped with swords and crossbows.
History
The Castle was built on the ruins of the old Castle which was destroyed by fire during the Calamity. When Westlight was retaken by the The Lampknight and his forces, they would fortify themselves in the ruins and reconstruction would begin shortly after.
