Mount Soyaza

Mount Soyaza is located near the convergence of Haltwen and Holme, on the left shore of Haltwen. It rises up high above the surrounding plain as a fortress of its own.

In History
It has, however, a real castle built upon it; it was built between 2345 and 2358 4A by lord Asyarba Nummurezi, a distant relative of the royal Relesár dynasty.

The fortress, Mirg Soyazi, has come to signify the both glorious and perilous days of Asàel, when the many lords fought each other over power but also enjoyed relative independence from the Throne.

Albayne, son of Asyarba, had to defend the castle from an extensive siege during a war for power in the Between-Rivers region. Mirg Soyaz withstood the siege that lasted three months and Albayne later waged a successful series of battles that granted the Nummurezi control of the southern area between Eduin and Haltwen as well as some lands on the other shore of Haltwen, between it and Holme.
