Located on the northwestern edge of [[Sapience]], the famed [[city-state]] of '''Ashtan, Bastion of the North''', was founded in the days of legend, long before the rise of the [[Seleucarian Empire]]. It has been a prominent seaport on the [[Sapphire Ocean]] almost since the day [[Glanos]] established it, shortly after he and [[Sahart]] left [[Ceylon]]. Though the overseas trade dried up during the Anarchy Rebellions and the naval force fell into deprecation, in modern times Ashtan has still remained a powerful force politically, economically, and martially. Its primary principle is freedom, in mind, body, and spirit. | Located on the northwestern edge of [[Sapience]], the famed [[city-state]] of '''Ashtan, Bastion of the North''', was founded in the days of legend, long before the rise of the [[Seleucarian Empire]].

[[House]]-wise, Ashtan plays host to a bevy of adventurers, including the [[Occultists]], [[Shadowsnakes]], [[Warlocks]], and [[Ashura]] monks, as well as an array of houseless rogues enticed by Ashtan's promise of freedom. The city-state is actively guarded by the likes of War Witches, golden-armoured Knights of the Illuminati, and Shadow Amazons. | [[:Category:Houses|House]]-wise, Ashtan plays host to a bevy of adventurers, including the [[Occultists]], [[Shadowsnakes]], [[Warlocks]], and [[Ashura]] monks, as well as an array of houseless rogues enticed by Ashtan's promise of freedom.
