Establish … Stronghold

Restore the Fortress of Badd

The landscape around B Ahar is a rugged maze of jagged cliffs, lofty mountains and deep oak forests. Here are the ruins of the Khurramite leader Babak's formidable old fortress, perched on a high mountain, shielded by ice and snow. If I could claim it and restore it, I could secure a strategic stronghold for the beleaguered … faith.
