Introduction
Eisarngrad, formerly known as Eisarnwidius, Eisarn meaning iron and widius meaning forest,( the former capital of The Kingdom of Eisarnknoth), is a small village near the Jägershoff Brewery. Eisarnknoth used to be a kingdom led by Thiudan Aleksandra of the House of Baireiksing. The culture of Eisarnknoth was inspired by Gothic culture. Although they consisted largely of Attian Humans that seceded from the Hadrian empire, they also allowed other races to live with them.

The village is located very close to the swamp with only a river separating the two.
It’s located on tile 15.
History
It is told that the founding Attian House of Eisarknoth, the "House of Baireiksing", descended from a long line of men in service to Alder, legendary founder of Alderism.
In the Empire of Hadriana, a branch of this ancient House was also known with the name "Salier".
During the Raevendrecht-Hadriana War in 1532, a prominent member of this House, Aleksandra Salier, left the Empire of Hadriana and led her people Southwards in search of profit. There the Saliers founded a town by the Al-Tobruk Ruins in the eastern Anjyarri desert.
This project lasted a year, during which they gathered money and influence until political games in Hadriana granted an opportunity for the family to settle north of Adelsburg, next to the old ruins of Magna Attia.
In internal disagreements among the old family members Aleksandra slew her father Viktor and started a reformation of the House to its ancestral origins.
This leader studied and restored what she called " the old Alder’s ways", and reverted back the Saliers to their original name: Baireiksing, meaning “Bear Sovereign”.
The House of Baireiksing therefore founded a separation of Alderism, the Wahrheit Alderism, which was the State's official religion.
In 1534, Aleksandra Baireiksing finished her reformation, with the institution of a professional army, named the "Eisarnknoth Harjaz", referencing an old legendary happening in The Kingdom of Hadriana, when a Witch flooded Magna Attia and Prince Severan led the Attians out of their ancestral lands.
The settlement has never been able to avoid the assiduous presence of the hostile creatures of the nearby swamp, which it has always successfully repelled.
The great activity of Eisarknoth's army was also briefly known abroad, where the family's connections secured treaties and profitable trade agreements. Worthy of note was the collaboration with the High Elves, precious for their magical knowledge effective against the undead of Magna Attia.
However, the presence of the Undead became more and more insistent on the settlement, until the shadow of the Bone Lord fell on the city. In the end, in a gigantic voidal invasion Eisarnwidus capitulated and its inhabitants fled.
After the city was abandoned for some years, the citizens of Raevkov entered the ruined fort, and by rebuilding its damaged buildings they reclaimed it as part of the Tzardom.
What it is in Present Time
Right now Eisarngrad is a village that belongs to the Tzardom of Raevkov.
