	~~<span class="DROPCAP">F</span>ort~~ of Kings has been known by many different names over the centuries. Originally it was known as Branstown in honor of the man who would unite the lands around the [[Erilyn]] River and become the first king of the kingdom. The name was changed in 33 to King's Land in honor of his coronation. It is rumored that [[Milara]] himself landed in the port city around 890 on the eve of the [[death]] of King Hiralm III. It is also generally rumored that the site was the landing point of the first King Sun but that has never been actually proven. The large statue to the Sun Kings does sit in the residential section of the city but it is contemporarily thought to be more in tribute to an allied neighbor than marking any claim he might have on the port.

	The highlight of the harbor district is the Mother's fountain. Carved from a single block of ancient marble like coral that seems to defy weathering, is an image of Cinna Drayton with the infant king in her arms as King Bran was born during a unusual summer storm that prevented the ship Cinna and her husband Bartamus were traveling on to berth in it's normal port of Drayton's cove. The fountain has the mother and child protected by a [[flanking]] of the four fin ridged dolphin found in the various oceans of [[Layonara]].
