Ivan's Cairn

Ivan's Cairn is an ancient stone structure in the Duchy of ---. It has been used as a landmark by the people of Fleur for many years and is most famous as the meeting site of Charles the Elder and Charles the Pretender during the Gardener Rebellion.
== History ==
While the Cairn was likely built by Mound Builders in the early to mid Ancient Era, the cairn didn't receive its name until sometime in the early 600s AE, when cartographer and surveyor Ivan Steadyhand added it to his Map of Flir and its Neighboring Territories. However, when he placed the cairn on the map, he accidentally mismarked it far further north than it actually was, so for years explorers thought the cairn was a fake. Thus, the name Ivan's Cairn came to be used for a variety of stone landmarks. Eventually though the real Ivan's Cairn would be identified and associated with the name, thought the popular use of the term still remains. 
On the 29th of Caed of 60 CE, Duke Charles Olivarden the Elder and Charles the Pretender met at Ivan's Cairn after Charles the Younger had been struck down at the nearby battle. The negotiations did not end the Gardener Rebellion nor return young Charles' body to his father. Since then, Ivan's Cairn has been used to locate the battlefield where the battle occurred. 
== Description ==
Ivan's Cairn is a nine foot tall pillar of piled stones located near a small grove of trees in one of the flatter sections of --- near ---. The bottom stones are quite large, too big to move by hand, but they become more manageable to higher up the tower they go. The interior has a small empty space, with shards of old pottery mixed with dust on the floor inside. Most believe it once held the body of an important ancient person.
