Cadaemar

The Magisterium and Guilds of Cadaemar is a noble republic and city-state situated at the tip of the Cadaemarish Peninsula in the northwest of the continent. Built in a cold fjord, sculpted out of granite and magically set into the rock, it is also referred to as the Granite Republic. Magical noble families from a class known across the continent as the Granite Magisters rule the city, dominating both Guilds and Magisterium between them. They have a notoriously conservative bend, jealously guarding the foundations of magic which they feel should remain a mystery. This has recently become a source of conflict with the famous University of Cadaemar, formed on the foundations of a monastic school established there with the mages’ consent, but which has now made the mages envious and fearful of the progress of science.
