The first line of defense against a possible invasion from the east. Eastfort is a heavily defended fort and has become even more defended after the defeat across the border. People have settled outside of the walls and a community has been established consisting of travellers and merchants alike. Keeping the fort safe comes first which has led to some people to be treated harshly when they get too close to cause discord around the defenses. The fort and the people living in the area are under the watch and rule of the Castle family.
