Kredik Shaw

Aside from the soldiers who guard it and the Lord Ruler himself, only Inquisitors and the highest Obligators frequent the halls of this elaborate palace, and most of Luthadel prefers it that way. As formidable as it is breathtaking, Kredik Shaw both enthralls and warns with the sharp, high towers that gave it its name (“Kredik Shaw” is Terris for “Hill of a Thousand Spires”). There is no doubt that it is the most beautiful building in the city, and yet there is something horrifying about it. Whether they know someone who was held prisoner and tortured within its walls or simply fear the man who dwells within, most people- skaa and noble alike- find reasons to not stay long.
