History
brief description of the location itself
Construction and Thereafter
After the deeming of the previous city of Kal'Nikaer as being poorly designed, Grand King Algoda Frostbeard commissioned the city of Kal'Omith be built. The city took designs and knowledge from the Hall of Urguan and combined it with the architecture used by the Paragon of Building Omithiel Strongbrow, naming the city after him. The city served as the capital for the Grand Kingdom through Philip's War where the dwarves defended their lands against the Holy Orenian Empire. The first Grand King crowned in the city was Bastion Ireheart, who was elected and crowned after the execution of Algoda Frostbeard by the Orenian Emperor Philip Frederick Horen.
The Deeproads
The Deeproads of Kal'Omith are largely unknown and uncharted however recent expeditions have uncovered vast amounts of goblin hordes living beneath.
Geography
Kal'Omith is located along the seaside road between the Haenseti-Ruskan Empire and the City of Arcadia, tucked carefully between two massive mountain ranges. To reach the city's gates one must climb a series of long and not-so-steep stairways placed between two gargantuan states of dwarves holding forever-lit torches. The city's main gate is lavishly decorated, protected by a multiple-meter thick doorway sealed only when the city closes it's gates for foreign entry, or in times dangerous to the integrity of the capital. Across from the city gates sits the ocean, and a very narrow strip of beach. Few shrubs dot the landscape, trees often in far-flung areas, however alongside the pathway leading to the gate, behind the states sits a small fir forest, brought to life to bring natural beauty to the city entryway.
