More ideas. You know those many islands where that big Harad-river lets out? That's where the entire city and metropolitan area of Abâr-Al-Mînbar is located (that's the capital). Around the entire cluster of the hundreds of islands linked together Is a huge wall that bridges across the waterways to perfectly incircle it, with grates underneath to keep the water flowing. where the river lets out into the big bay and becomes mixed-water, anything not beyond the first turn of the bay is called the Khalij-Al-Mînbar. Protecting the outer corner of the Khalij on one side is a huge, imposing fortress constructed in the Haradic style (a much plainer rendition of it), but of Numenorean black stone - the Alkarondas. It has huge, thick walls, and is built very high on them. It's many layers of battlemats are heavily manned at all times, and it is armed to the teeth in everything from balistas to catapults to canons (all crazy varieties of the later). On the other side of the bay, there is only a single tower, built of the same black stone and in the same fashion to match the Alkarondas. It's nothing compared to the Alkarondas, but it does the job. Any enemies who come up through the bay and towards the city are cought in a horrible cross-fire, and as a result, the Khalij is riddled with shipwrecks, skeletons and all sorts of old antiques that continue to wash up, along with gold and bones.
