Caford sits at the crossroads of major trade routes, acting as a gateway between the northern mountain regions and the rest of Baltun’ia. It is a heavily defended city, designed as a fortress first, trade hub second.

• Governance: Led by a council of merchants and retired military leaders, balancing trade with security.
• Economy: Thrives on trade, livestock, and mining, serving as a major supplier of gemstones and rare metals.
• Defenses: Layered walls, high watchtowers, and reinforced gatehouses make Caford nearly impossible to breach.
• Culture: A mix of military discipline and mercantile ambition, with a tradition of grand feasts and horse-mounted games.
