Allsteinfeste stands as an unyielding sentinel over the pass connecting Earlsdale to the Esairan Empire. Its towering spires pierce the sky, a testament to its enduring strength. The fortress walls, hewn from ancient stone, have withstood countless assaults. At dawn, the trumpet's call echoes as Esairan troops take their posts, ready to defend against any who dare approach.
Within its formidable walls, the garrison thrives, equipped with all necessary provisions to repel invaders. Archers vigilantly man every corner, their arrows poised to rain down on intruders. During daylight, tolls are collected from travelers seeking passage, ensuring the fortress remains well-funded and secure.
Allsteinfeste also houses several inns and a bustling marketplace, where merchants trade goods under the watchful eyes of Esairan officials. The toll gates see a variety of payments—from coins to livestock—each traveler receiving a token to continue their journey unimpeded. This system ensures smooth trade between Earlsdale and Esaira, while safeguarding against unwelcome visitors.
Having never been conquered, Allsteinfeste now serves as the first line of defense against the Glurnser occupation of the Duchy of March, maintaining open trade routes and asserting Esairan dominance over the region.
