9. Currently empty: (ex Hold of Azad-An)
Tower Location: North-west of the Central Isle, the Hold of Azad-An is on the river Rundig.
Notes: The Azad-An, are a group of mercenaries and were the protectors of the Reader (one of the trading Towers of Orin Rakatha). With the loss of their Tower following a protracted persecution, martially and politically, by the Kalid there was a split in the tower and the son of Azard took many of his people to join the Kalid. With the help of the Valley, Azard and those loyal to him now reside in Readers Domicile while their old tower lies empty.
Colours: Red and Green (to represent their alliance with the Reader)
