Dawn Gate
From Will of the Seven Campaign
Dawn Gate is the main gate that connects the Old Town atop the Red Mesa with the Sunside district below. It used to be the main gate of the ancient city of Fynwell when it was first funded, so it is beyond ancient, ornate and highly defensible. Today the Red Mesa is deep within the city limits, safe from foreign invasions and protected by the Outer Walls on the outskirts, and thus it remains open, and is symbolically staffed by distinguished aging City Guard veterans.
Service at the Dawn Gate is considered an honor post - a safe, cushy, retirement posting one earns through dedicated service.
