Kjeld

Kjeld was a city and part-time capital in the kingdom of Kjeldor on Terisiare during Dominaria's Ice Age.Jeff Grubb (2000), The Eternal Ice, Wizards of the Coast
==Description==
Kjeld was a great port located on the eastern shore of the continent, its marble spires an ode to the mages and kings who gave their lives so that life might continue even in the cold.Jeffrey Gómez & Jeofrey Vita. (August 1995.) "Ice Age #2: The Frozen Dead", ARMADA. Kjeld’s streets were multicolored cobblestones, a cascade of reds, blues, and greens, with buildings that were smaller and neater than those of the austere, white fastness of Krov. Kjeld was the ancestral holding of Darien’s line, and it cultured a small, tidy, powerful feeling.Jeff Grubb (2000) The Shattered Alliance, Wizards of the Coast

==History==
Kjeld was initially the capital of Kjeldor, named after Oriel Kjeldos, who led her people away from Storgard before its fall. Although she died on the journey, she is counted as one of the nation's founders. Kjeld was built near the site of the fallen Penregon of old Argive and remained the capital until the expanding merchant city of Krov took over that position, though the summer palace remained in Kjeld.Jeff Grubb (2000), The Eternal Ice, Wizards of the Coast
500 years after its foundation, Kjeld was ruled by King Darien and home to Zaraya and the Knights of Kjeldor. From there the Kjeldoran army of soldiers, Jötun giants, White Shield order knights and Aesthir Skyknights fought the Cult of Rimewind.Monty Ashley. (June, 2006.) "The Battle of Kjeldor", Daily MTG, magicthegathering.com, Wizards of the Coast.
Sometime after the formation of New Argive, the city was renamed Argivia. It was destroyed utterly during the Phyrexian Invasion of Dominaria but was rebuilt during the Rift Era, with the new city also being named Argivia.
==Royal Name==
"Kjeld" was also the family name of the first dynasty of royals in the nation Kjeldor.
