Everholt Keep | Tol Forod
Nessantico
A world where the mountains wore crowns of frost and the forests whispered ancient songs, Nessantico was as old as the stories carved into the stones of its keeps. In the northern kingdom of Tol Forod, Everholt Keep was a fortress of obsidian stone and pale spires, rising from a basin of natural hot springs. Built long ago by Clan Galvus under the command of High-King Sangruvious himself, the keep had stood through wars, storms, and dynasties -- and now, for the first time, opened its gates to both Mandalorians and Republic delegates.
Banners hung overhead bearing the sigil of the Mandalorian Empire, the mythosaur skull, flanked by the banner with the gilded crest of the High Republic. Soldiers, nobles, statesmen, and citizens mingled in uneasy harmony; laughter and wary curiosity mingled just as easily as the spice and smoke from the feast tables that lined the open courtyards.
The faint whir of repulsors echoed as Basilisk war droids circled lazily in the arena, their armored riders preparing for the tournament’s grand spectacle -- a joust unlike any seen since the age of Mand’alor the Unbroken.
 
	The Arena of Blades
Challenge another in a one-on-one exhibition match!
Set at the southern end of Everholt’s sprawling fortress complex, the Iron Yard serves as an open exhibition arena, where honor is tested not by blasters or machines, but by blade and skill alone.
Here, any warrior, knight, or citizen of the Mandalorian Empire or High Republic may issue or accept a challenge in a one-on-one exhibition match. Weapons are restricted to traditional melee arms -- beskads, vibroswords, electro-staves, knives, or training sabers.
There are no ranks, no politics, and no stakes beyond pride.
 
	The Market of Concord
Explore the Market of Concord, a lively bazaar in Everholt’s lower courtyard.
Beneath the towering walls of Everholt, the Lower Courtyard Bazaar thrums with life. Merchants from across the High Republic and the Mandalorian Empire have gathered here to trade goods, crafts, and curiosities from every corner of known space.
Here, trade flows as freely as conversation. Senators, smiths, pilots, and wanderers mingle, striking deals, forging connections, or simply enjoying the color and chaos of the marketplace.
 
	The Feast of Concord | Featuring Basilisk Jousting
Attend the Feast of Concord to forge alliances, trade, and share cultures while watching the Basilisk Joust. Cheer for your champion -- or take up the challenge yourself and challenge another!
The Grand Courtyard of Everholt blazed with firelight as long tables of red stone lined the jousting arena, surrounded by braziers and open pits. Steam curled from roasted nerf and Shaak ribs, and servers carried goblets of Blossom Wine, tihaar, and golden ale through the throng. Beskar horns and viols rose together in a haunting harmony of war and peace.
Nobles, soldiers, and Mandalorians sat side by side, while Jedi and Senate envoys watched in calm repose. For one night, blades were traded for cups, and unity filled the air.
At the courtyard’s heart, the Basilisk Joust began -- riders mounting their war droids in a dazzling contest of precision and courage. Mandalorians rode for glory; Republic knights for honor.
