Citadel (Arabel)

The Citadel was a fortress and prison in the city of Arabel in Cormyr. It was the largest building in that city and the home of the Army of the East.
==Description==
The grand fortress was so large that it was visible from no matter where one stood in the city. It was designed primarily to be a fortress, and so it did not have many distinguishing features that did not serve it in that role.
==Location==
The Citadel was located in the most prosperous section of the city, the north, near the Arabellan Palace and just west of the Lady's House, a temple to Tymora. It was surrounded by multiple mansions of the rich nobles and merchants of the city.
The highest lookout tower on the city walls—where Kelemvor once battled Knightsbridge—was just north of the complex.
==Services==
Adventuring charters, which were a requirement for adventurers operating in Cormyr, could be acquired at the Citadel.
In addition to a jail, the Citadel also contained a royal library, where historical records of Cormyr were kept.
==History==
Aris, Galaeron Nihmedu, and Ruha were once held prisoner overnight in the Citadel's jail for their own protection from the Shadovar.
