North Gate Completed - Northreach Unveiled

The Imperial Tribunal reports that the "North Gate" - a one hundred foot tall gate that spans the gap in the northern Aegis created by Prince Serath Kahar when he removed the "Kahar's Bane" curse from the great wall, has been completed.

The Tribunal also claims that travel to the Wildlands and back into Fastheld may soon be permitted to those who are influential and capabable enough to warrant one, allowing them excursions into the Wildlands at their own risk to explore and prospect as they see fit.

However, of greater curiosity is that a new Township has also been constructed around the North Gate: a Seamel Township named as Northreach. It is an announcement that has come as a shock to Nobles and Freelanders alike, as it would seem that the township was constructed entirely under the veil of secrecy, and as such remains somewhat of a dark horse indeed.

However, all of the land deeds and construction orders have apparently been approved by the Imperial Crown, and the reason for the secrecy seems to be self-evident: House Seamel now commands all access to and from the North Gate, as well as having constructed a powerful economical base in the north of Fastheld. Northreach is situated in a position that requires all merchants trading exotic goods from the Wildlands into the Market District, and vice-versa, to travel through Wedgecrest, East Leg, Sweetwater, and Eastwatch, along the route.

Located directly north of the Mikin Township of Wedgecrest along Northreach Road, both the township and the North Gate are nothing if not feats of brilliance indeed...
