The fortress library of the Stanchion stands upon a crest of rock overlooking Providence Road and the Lightholder River. Its position upon that promontory - a combination of defensive height and location - makes it nearly unassailable without the added factor of a curtain wall that stands as an initial guard before one ever reaches the Keep itself. Currently, the Stanchion's policy is to live and let live, continuing their policy of tolerance and understanding (and power) through knowledge and education.
