Rochalva Keep is an imposing fortress that serves as the headquarters for House Rochalva. Nestled in a strategic location atop a rugged hill near Balhejar, the keep commands a sweeping view of the surrounding lands, providing both a formidable defense and a symbol of the House's enduring power and legacy.
The keep is constructed from sturdy, weathered stone, its walls thick and buttressed to withstand sieges. The central structure features a grand hall with vaulted ceilings and ornate chandeliers, reflecting a blend of military might and refined elegance. Distinctive Belunese-style windows and doorways are intricately carved with motifs of the lynx, heralding the House's storied history and adventures. Towers at each corner of the keep provide lookouts and additional defensive capabilities, complete with crenellations and arrow slits.
Surrounded by a defensive curtain wall with a single fortified gatehouse, providing the primary entrance, the keep is well defended. Outside the walls, a bustling village thrives, supported by the keep's presence and trade from Balhejar. Fields and pastures stretch beyond the village, worked by serfs who provide sustenance for the House.
Rochalva Keep stands as a symbol of House Rochalva's strength, resilience, and commitment to protecting their lands and people. Its imposing presence serves as a constant reminder of the House’s authority and their role as guardians of the realm.
