The Iron Keep

The iron keep is the main stronghold for house Glenshaw and has been at the apex of Dragonroost isle, one of the twin isles, for as long as anyone residing on the island can remember. Contrary to popular belief, the keep gets it's name not because it is made of iron, but because of the rich veins of iron under the keep, which have been mined by the Glenshaws for centuries, providing them with not only a resource to strengthen their own military power, but also to trade with others.

The Iron keep is known not only because of its mines, but because, according to legend, it was built on the site of a white dragon's roost. The dragon, named Rhaegos, was apparently killed by warriors who went on to found house Glenshaw, building the iron keep and their sigil in honor of this victory. However, the dragon was not confirmed to be dead, but it is presumed so as it took a mortal wound in the fight.

The Outer Circle
The outer circle of the keep is the first line of defense against any would be attackers, so therefore contains barracks for the guards who man the wall, as well as a few houses for the higher ranking officers.
