Nikesake

Nikesake is a small city located near Toshi Ranbo and has cemented the Crane-Phoenix alliance for over three centuries when the Phoenix once helped the Crane defend Toshi Ranbo from a Lion attack. In present day the estates in Nikesake serve to supplement those in the Imperial City.

Shrines
There are two joint shrines located just outside the city, honoring both the Crane and the Phoenix. It is said that as long as the shrines stand there will always be peace between the two clans.
