Chachin is the capital city of Kandor, in the Borderlands. It is located on the junction of several trade routes, including the cross-Borderland route running from Bandar Eban to Fal Moran and another running south to Tar Valon. It is located just south of the Blight and as a result is extremely heavily defended, although it is large enough and far enough south that vigilance is not quite as severe as in smaller settlements such as Canluum. Chachin is not usually counted as one of the great cities of the Westlands, but it rivals Tear in size. Despite being neither built by Ogier nor founded on the site of a city built by Ogier, Chachin holds its fair share of ancient relics; foremostly the documents named the Strike at Shayol Ghul were found inside the mountain city. It is unknown exactly

  • Chachin is the capital city of Kandor, in the Borderlands. It is located on the junction of several trade routes, including the cross-Borderland route running from Bandar Eban to Fal Moran and another running south to Tar Valon. It is located just south of the Blight and as a result is extremely heavily defended, although it is large enough and far enough south that vigilance is not quite as severe as in smaller settlements such as Canluum. Chachin is not usually counted as one of the great cities of the Westlands, but it rivals Tear in size. Despite being neither built by Ogier nor founded on the site of a city built by Ogier, Chachin holds its fair share of ancient relics; foremostly the documents named the Strike at Shayol Ghul were found inside the mountain city. It is unknown exactly how old the city is; it is known that it, and its neighbor capital Shol Arbela, lay within the borders of Elsalam, but it is neither said of what importance they were nor if either of them was capital. The city is built around several hills with three tall mountains rising out of the center. The Aesdaishar Palace, the seat of the ruler of Kandor, currently Queen Ethenielle Cosaru Noramaga, is located atop the highest mountain, which rises over 5,000 feet over the city below. Three tall ringwalls encircle the city with a 100-foot-wide drymoat located beyond that. Twenty-four bridges cross the moat, each overlooked by a small fortress where the bridge meets the city. The Bridge of Sunrise is located on the eastern side of the city, where the road from Canluum enters the city. As with many Borderland cities, Chachin is mostly made of stone buildings with glazed tile roofs that are more difficult to burn in a sneak attack. The poorest districts are nearest the edge of the city, within the first ringwall, with the districts becoming richer and more prosperous the closer a traveler comes to the central mountains. The city is also the home of the Merchants' Guild of Kandor. These merchants can easily be recognized by the chains going across the front of their coats. Inns within Chachin include the Silver Penny, Ruffled Goose, Evening Star and Blind Pig.

Die Stadt liegt gleich südlich der Fäule und ist deshalb extrem stark verteidigt, obwohl sie groß genug ist und weit genug südlich liegt, dass die Wachsamkeit nicht ganz so schwer ist wie in kleineren Siedlungen wie Canluum. Chachin wird nicht grundsätzlich als eine der großen Städte der Westlande gezählt, aber kann in der Größe mit Tear mithalten. Die Stadt ist auf mehreren Hügel erbaut, mit drei großen Bergen, die sich in ihrem Zentrum erheben. Der Aesdaishar Palast, der Sitz des Herrschers von Kandor - derzeit Königin Ethenielle Cosaru Noramaga - liegt auf dem höchsten Berg, der sie über fünftausend Fuß über der darunterliegenden Stadt erhebt. Drei hohe Ringmauern umspannen die Stadt mit einem einhundert Fuß breiten trockenen Burggraben dahinter. Vierundzwanzig Brücken überqueren den Graben, jeder überblickt von einer kleinen Festung, wo die Brücke in die Stadt mündet. Die Brücke des Sonnenaufgangs liegt an der östlichen Seite der Stadt, wo die Straße von Canluum in die Stadt führt. Wie viele Städte der Grenzlande besteht Chachin hauptsächlich aus Steingebäuden mit glasierten Ziegeldächern, die bei einem schleichenden Angriff viel schwerer niederzubrennen sind. Die ärmsten Viertel sind der Stadtgrenze am nächsten, innerhalb der ersten Ringmauer, wobei die Viertel reicher und wohlhabernder werden, je näher ein Reisender den zentralen Bergen kommt. Die Stadt ist auch der Sitz der Handelsgilde von Kandor. Diese Händler können leicht erkannt werden durch die Ketten, die die Brust ihrer Jacken überspannen. Die Gasthäuser in Chachin sind unter anderem der Silberpenny, die Zerzauste Gans, der Abendstern und das Blinde Schwein.
