During the Age of Exploration—roughly a hundred years ago—ships launched from this town’s piers would discover the sea routes that led to the eastern continent. Canalbrine’s symbol is its colossal lighthouse, which guides ships from all corners of the world safely into its harbor. Erected roughly twenty years ago by a cadre of engineers who fled the destruction of the U, it boasts a unique design. Special ore was polished to a mirror sheen and fashioned into a reflector plate, and the light it emits can supposedly be seen all the way in New Delsta.
