The Crown Guard trains new recruits within the ramparts of Fort Kingsfang. A stone wall runs east to west for 15 miles in either direction, with the military base constructed behind its center. This wall was once a landmark denoting the Alley-Oric border, and the fort was the site of a major battle during Unknown.
Today, it is still used to instruct young commoners from the surrounding baronies. Lords send teenage Alley wolves to Kingsfang to learn basic martial discipline, in case the need for their service arises. The years following the Invader War have seen renewed attention paid to training commoners in the art of war.
