Bal Kreggar
Bal Kreggar is a sparkling marvel of wealth and arcane innovation built around a vertical chasm lined with shimmering gems. It serves as both mine and city. Matriarch Halla governs from a crystal tower, blending elegance with strategic brilliance. Scholars study the Echo Chasm to track earthquakes and mana tides. Wealth, magic, and strict accounting define this gleaming metropolis.
Note: Bal Kreggar holds land won in the Valley War that it still struggles to fully tame. The seat of clan leadership remains in transition following the loss of Lord Garrum Ironvein.
Districts
Gemvault Heights — Cliffside estates of gem magnates, balcony-lined palaces, and the Ironvein clan hall.
Sparkhall — Arcane district of artificers, gem-powered magitech labs, and magical research towers.
Veinfall Ward — Loud and rough mining tunnels where ore carts rattle and stone-singers keep rhythm.
Underquartz — Humble residential borough lit by pale crystal domes. Community-driven and calm beneath the clamor above.
