Little Triumph
The worst city
Built on the outermost edge of Kapesh, surviving against all odds almost as if it were defying the very gods themselves. Little Triumph is a place of little education, and constant struggle.
They city was originally an outpost, called Triumph, placed for the purpose of expansion during the lulls of the Triumvirate Battles. Many of these outposts were constructed on the furthest edges of The Witchlands. All of these outposts quickly fell to monsters, save for Triumph. Despite regular attacks, disease, and even curses, a small city formed around the outpost.

# Authority
The city is run by Lord Delfin Baron, AKA ‘The Baron’. An almost obsessively loyal servant to King Galliard.
Since the city is so remote and largely left alone by the crown, The Baron rules in almost a little bubble of his own. Many other rulers would capitalize on this, but The Baron does not. He seems to have an obsession with King Galliard and does everything in his name.
# Laws
The city subscribes to the Kapeshian Laws.
