Caer-Konig

Caer-Konig was one of the towns of Ten Towns in Icewind Dale.

Geography
Caer-Konig was located on the northern shore of Lac Dinneshere, not far from Caer-Dineval. The fishing waters of the lake were shared between the two towns, but fishermen nevertheless often squabbled over territory.

History
Dorim Lugar was the councilman of the town until he was killed over a fish in 1356 DR. His second-in-command, Schermont, became the new councilman after the incident. Schermont was known for his heavy-handed approach to rulership, and he held a particular grudge against Caer-Dineval.

After the war with Akar Kessell and the Battle of Icewind Dale, Caer-Konig was given to the barbarians, although the barbarians later left town for the open tundra.

Description
The town straddled the round harbor in a semicircle, with a line of buildings at the edge of the harbor, an uphill slope, and a circular round with buildings.
