Drakes Perch
On the heights, outside the western walls of the
City
HE
keep on the rutt of a mountain was used as a perch by a green drake
prior to its attack on Sarbreenar. It sat there to ponder which
bit to destroy first. It later moved on to attack Procampur. The
drake, or dragon, is remembered as the Sarbreenar Wyrm.
The keep had been built because this strategic vantage
point was considered so important by the Dwarves of the area. No
one can remember when it was completed but it is very old indeed.
Its now in use by the City Guard as a base of operations.
Much of it is carved out of the solid rock, so it can withstand
a considerable beating.
In the year 1371 DR Sarbreenar
was almost annihilated by a large humanoid army. Drakes
Perch failed to protect the city against giants who gained the heights
and threw down great boulders onto the City. They destroyed the
western walls so that their shock troops could break through. This
was known as the Third Razing of
Sarbreenar.
