Culdûm

Culdûm is a castle in central Yent. Created by the lich queen, it's easily the grandest in Yent, and its strategic location in Yent's most important mountain pass gives King Tristan outsize influence relative to the small size of his realm.

It has never been captured since King Tristan's ancestor, one of the realm's great heroes, slayed the lich queen some 150 years ago; he promptly declared himself king of all Yent on the basis of his heroism, got no recognition, and never left Culdûm

Culdûm continues to claim all Yent as their rightful domain, so other Yentish monarchs rarely have diplomatic relations with them. However, Alcora has occasionally gone to war to defend Culdûm to maintain the balance of power among their neighbours, though they have no interested in helping Culdûm's rulers follow up on their grand territorial ambitions
