Rampart Supreme

The Bear Clan's ancestral home, it was a mighty fortress of the Estellion Sky Empire that harked back to more troubled times.

History
During Estellion's wars to unite the people in the swell, this was built into an island fortress to defend Estellion interests within Northern Ring. The Bear Clan inhabited it for years after, never really reaching out unlike most of the other Myrmidons. They did not stay with the Nadir, as their specific instructions from their creation was to defend Northern Ring directly.

The Bear Clan developed a love of the arts, and during the early years of Northern Ring's joining the empire, they were the patrons of many pieces of art and literature. This helped bind the hearts of the people of Northern Ring closer to the Empire. They also kept a great deal of records there, as well as book collections, paintings and a series of legendary swords created by an ancestor of Tubel. Also, the island was a major port of call into the Northern Ring

When Uracca Lilty died, Ludella Lilty was sent here to live and grow among the Bear Clan. Unfortunately, the Grand Vizier, Nizam the Wise caught wind of her, and sent the Ashla Fleet to destroy the threat to his power. The Bear Clan refused to give her up and fought the Ashla Fleet. The island was leveled and Ludella was slain, along with Corin, the leader of the Bear Clan. The Bear Clan was nearly exterminated as well, and they had to leave their home for good.

Much of the Bear Clan's ordeal struggle and the island's history is recorded in an epic poem.

Sky Island
Now, it is a ruined wasteland full of rubble. Treasure Hunters hope to find goods among it, the legendary swords being the highest name on their lists. They are rumored to be made of gold, and yet still usable. Each was owned by the fourteen founders of the Bear Clan.

Recently, most of the island has been rebuilt by Helia Ordin as a base for the Pillar Alliance forces operating in the Northern Ring and surrounding areas. Admiral William Strong-Fist has been planning to retake the island without destroying the island, but has yet to discover a satisfactory one.

System
Once, it was a lively system, but after its destruction, it was reduced to a few minor refueling stations. These doubled as spies for the Estellion Council. The Moon of Rampart Supreme was never properly modified, except for a few ship docks. The Pillar Alliance has expanded it to a proper dock system for refit and repairs.

Recently, a large Fortress was constructed and sent up by Sabbatholm to better fortify the position. It has been turned into something like a field hospital. It is called Cornerstone Keep. It is currently commanded by Helia Ordin during her recovery after fighting Admiral Armstrong.
