Valcrystia Royal Castle — "The Eternal Crown"
Overview:
The Valcrystia Royal Castle, also known as The Eternal Crown, is not a simple fortress. It is a self-contained royal complex equivalent in size to a small city, fully independent from any town or outer settlement. It serves as both the heart of the kingdom's leadership and the home to King Veylan Valcryst, Queen Avaria, their over 60 children, royal staff, soldiers, and companions.
