Kingsglade

Kingsglade is a major city in the western part of the Astoran Empire. It was conquered by Solithia prior to the start of the campaign, and is currently occupied by their troops.

Appearance & Locations

Kingsglade is a castle town, built around the Kingsglade Castle, with stone walls surrounding the city. The castle contains an impressive library. M.P.'s house is located in town, as well as an entrance to Mimi's store.

History

The Clayborne family has ruled Kingsglade and the surrounding area since before the founding of the Empire. They willingly joined forces with Astora during the early days of his reign, due to his close friendship with the son of the city's current ruler, Darius Clayborne. The Claybornes' leadership of Kingsglade continued up to the present day, until Solithian forces deposed the current Duke Clayborne.

Campaign Relevance

The party first visited Kingsglade early in the campaign, learning that Bingus' mother, General Cassandra Bingrellstein was currently overseeing the city. They were able to talk their way into the castle library, meeting the court mage Octavius, his apprentices, and Cassandra's daughter, Augusta. At Octavius' request, the party investigated M.P.'s house, and learned of Haudi's death, as well as obtaining the lantern of Hellfyre. Soon after, they were chased out of the city by Solithian guards.

The party has snuck back into Kingsglade several times since, notably including the time a faulty transportation spell sent Blitz inside Octavius' walls.
