A prison carved from stone on the coast of the Sea of Moving Ice. It is a "panopticon" to closely monitor dangerous prisoners' activities. It is controlled by the Lords Alliance, housing captives too dangerous to hold in their cities but also disadvantageous to execute. These are often political prisoners. It is governed by the Absolution Council, with members from many of the alliance cities. The council considers paroles and doling out amenities as well as managing the guards and wardings. The warden is a neutral arbiter, not affiliated with any one of the Lords Alliance cities.
