[edit] Trivia

  • Ashkelon was a large and important seaport in ancient Canaan. Its name was later corrupted to "Ascalon" by the English Crusaders. The "Battle of Ascalon" is generally considered to be the last battle of the First Crusade. It was finally destroyed for the last time in 1270 C.E. by the Mamluks. The ruins rest in what is now Israel's South District.
  • The image on the wall near Warmaster Tydus bears some resemblance to Kuunavang.
