Castle Vara

The great Castle Vara watches over the city of Maroza from atop the nearby cliffs. The castle not only appears impregnable; it has proven to be so time and again. Many years ago, the castle was besieged by invaders from the Kaspari Empire, who captured the commander's son and threatened to slit his throat unless the garrison surrendered. The commander threw them his own knife from the ramparts, saying "It is better to lose a son with honor, than lose a castle in disgrace." The commander lost his son that day, but Castle Vara has yet to be conquered by a foreign power.
