Deckwell is a Grandfather City that sits in the midst of the mineral-rich and rocky Iron Hills. Long a center of industry, especially of masonry and armaments, it is the local military power and dominates the entire Iron Hills region with influence all the way to the Raven River.
Deckwell was conquered by the Sindathi Empire, which hunted down and eradicated or co-opted the ruling ''Dwaeredeth'' caste and replaced them with a Sindathi noble family, House Hellias, as hereditary avo'kaibari. House Hellias went to some lengths to rule with a light hand and respect the traditions and laws of the Garreth, and so have been widely tolerated and legitimized as "Governors." The conquered Garreth are quite aware of their subject status beneath foreign rulers, but have made peace with it since the ''Jen'Telleth'' has been allowed to continue mostly unmolested.
