Stangengrad is a small city located within northern Falkovnia near the Darkon border. As such, Stangengrad exists in a perpetual state of war readiness. Stone walls protect the city, and Stangengrad holds a number of soldiers per capita higher than any of Falkovnia's other cities. Foreigners are forbidden by law to visit any part of the city other than the Zentrales Marktviertel ("Central Market District") and travel from there to the gates. All in all, Stangengrad is one of dullest and bleakest cities in Stangengrad simply from the amount of restrictions one suffers inside.[2]
