Rekkenmark

Rekkenmark is a large city in Karrnath standing on Scions Sound [1] across the water from Thaliost . [2]

History

The history of the city as a military training ground dates back almost 1000 years to the oldest son of King Galifar I , Prince Karrn , who founded what eventually became Rekkenmark Academy . [1]

The White Arch Bridge , which had one of its ends in the city, was destroyed in 899 YK at the command of Kaius I to prevent invasion from the west. [1] The bridge was repaired by Aundair , but was destroyed again in 928 YK and no one had the funds after that to repair the colossal bridge again. [3]

Description

Today, the city is a shadow of what it once was, having suffered not only the destruction of the bridge connecting it to the rest of the nations of Khorvaire , but multiple attacks over the course of the Last War , including the air raid of 974 YK , and the remnants of the devastation of these attacks can still be seen. [1]

However, the military academy still produces some of the finest officers in Khorvaire, [1] [4] and is attended by Halix ir'Wynarn , youngest son of Boranel ir'Wynarn , king of Breland , among others. [5]
