[Campaign Day 3–4]
Tidewatch had been built for beauty, not war.
Seylith's capital was a harbor city — a crescent of pale stone rising from the shoreline in terraces that followed the natural contours of the coast, its architecture reflecting the Bloomist aesthetic of water, light, and the organic curves that Tide domain artisans preferred over the straight lines and angular geometry of Ordinist construction. The buildings were faced with coral-stone — a material quarried from the coastal reefs and sun-bleached to the luminous white that gave the Pale Coast its name. The harbor itself was the city's heart: a natural deepwater bay enclosed by two breakwaters that extended from the crescent's tips, creating a sheltered anchorage that could accommodate three hundred fishing vessels and the twenty merchantmen that typically shared the harbor on any given trade day.
