Tower Sanctuaries of the Tower Lands
The are the individual Tower Sanctuaries of the Tower Lands. Each tower on the edge fof the Cosheus Abyssal was named after a small person, place/village, or feature known for its beauty in the old southern empire. The remaining nobles of the south drew lots to see who got to pick names.
Tower Design
Kihran’s Shield: The territories all had a capital, a Tower Sanctuary. A short berm or stone wall (carved from Cosheus Abyssal rocks) surrounded each and at the heart was the tower for which the locale was named. Most of these were built off a common design call Kihran’s Shield. This design was three rings with the tower forming the back of each. Each entry point to the next defended area was off-set so a rush could not push through more than one.
- Outer Wall: 1.5m berm or stone wall
- Gatehouse: Fortified and supplied for a week (12 occupants). The gatehouse was meant to be collapsed if captured, all had a deep trigger that would cause it to crumbled if removed.
- Inner Wall: 4-5m stone wall. There was an armored walk on the short side between the baily and tower. This was wooden planks and allowed those on the walkway to shoot into the inner bailey. This walkway was built set to be collpase from within the main tower.
- Bailey: Like the gatehouse, stocked and supplied for a week (12 occupants). Also like the gatehouse, it had a cornerstone on the inside that could collapse it if need be.
- Tower: The walls were 2m thick and 2 bulges (half towers) flanked the only entrance.
