Fortress of Tortuga

Once a fortress of the Ducateon, it was given to men as a sign of peace and prosperity and generosity of the Ducateon. In Tortuga, Ducateon and men walked side by side, traded, experimented, and learned from each other. It lasted not a hundred years before the north fell. Once a symbol of solidarity, it became one of infamy. The Ducateon slipped into the earth, leaving the human defenders behind when the fortress was besieged by the Orrish. The inhabitants were butchered when it eventually fell after 6 months of siege. The inhabitants were hung from the walls, their cries heard for miles around as they took weeks to die.

At its height, many metal short spears were made in the Fortress of Tortuga (fallen east) by Ducateon smiths and given to the houses of the east. The still carry a high price.
