The Citadel of Knowledge was an ancient fortress and the greatest center of learning across all of Centerra.
Built atop a small peninsula overlooking the Sea of Storms, its massive walls protected countless towers, halls, and libraries filled with books, scrolls, and magical knowledge.
Adam and Genevieve rode on horseback as they climbed the winding road toward the Citadel. Ahead, the fortress rose above the cliffs, its immense walls cutting across the sky. Towers and battlements stood behind them, while the sea stretched endlessly beyond the rocky coast. It was a sight to behold.
"Beautiful," Adam murmured in awe. "You grew up here?"
"Yes, I did." Genevieve lifted her chin, cerulean eyes gleaming with pride.
It was a six-month journey from the Free City of Davos to the Citadel. Another couple of months of journey down south and they would arrive at the borders governed by the Free City Alliance.
"This is…" Adam was truly enamored. "Amazing. Truly amazing."
