Duskendale on Blackwater Bay
Selected reading
The maesters are scholars, healers, messengers, and scientists trained at the Citadel in Oldtown. Their chains record studies in different fields, and their vows bind them to the seats they serve rather than to a single lord. From a remote castle's rookery to the king's small council, the order connects knowledge with power throughout the Seven Kingdoms. Its traditions begin with the Hightowers and the Citadel's foundation.
