1. The Castle
Acicade was an old ruin, dating from the time just after the humans had first landed on Icarus. The Castle was extremely well-situated. Sheltered by the mountains, protected by two rivers and built on top of a hill it was sheer impregnable. As time passed and the knights slowly managed to make an actual difference against the Nex Necii, more and more people left Acicade to venture into the new world and to build a home for themselves.
Current Status: Drak Pairings open.
Current Pets: Faerie Draks, Spiders.

2. The Castle Perimeter
Situated on a hill, Acicade Castle rises up from the surrounding areas like a giant landmark. The forest has been cut in a radius of half a mile around the Castle when it was re-inhabited and slowly houses sprang up against the castle walls and the open space started to be used as farming fields.
Current Pets: Pruts.

3. Ninja HQ
The Ninja head quarters lies deep within the colder forests to the south of Acicade. It is uncertain just how many people are members of this group and where they are at certain times. Their most pressing assignment is to keep the nearby bandit groups from raiding the cities and villages of the area. To get the help of the knights they agreed to keep an eye on things while the abandoned castle was still unable to fend off attacks.

4. The City of Seruian
Seruin lies to the East of Acicade on the riverbank of the Daram River. The soil in that area is very good for farming and growing fruit. That alone would not have been enough to support a large community, but with the aid of the Daram River and the downstream trading post Jagharta this settlement turned out to be autonomic.
Known for: Vegetables, Fruit and Animal rearing.
Adoptions: Vulpas

5. The City of Jagharta
Jagharta grew from a small settlement to the largest port in the vicinity within a few decades. The city itself is very cosmopolitan with lots of markets and shops. There is very little you can't buy there. Lots of different people live in it, some only for a short while, others stay there longer. Occasionally gypsy caravans and circuses pass through the city. Outside Jagharta's walls there are fields and meadows. most farmers live outside of Jagharta, but most have a shop somewhere inside the city.
Known for: Markets, Wine
Adoptions: none, might be able to buy something rare.

6. Towns and Villages
A series of small towns and villages, some only 10 houses large lay scattered in the vicinity of Acicade. They're typically very rural and hidebound.

7. The Forests of Acicade
The forests around Acicade are very diverse. Most of the forest in the immediate vicinity of Acicade is well-tended and open. Certainly the forest in the North has been fading because of the growth of Jagharta. It's a different story for the forest to the South and Southwest of Acicade. There the climate grows colder. Few people go there for pleasantries so it's stayed thicker. It's also less safe because of the presence of a bandit hideout. As with the Ninja HQ it's not known just how many people live here and what they do.
