Description

Cahbaet is the capital city located in the Northrealm, mainly inhabited by the Normannes. Having been built on a very steep mountain slope, the city and the fortress are easier to defend. Due to its favorable location, any oppressors find it difficult to storm the city. Unlike in the Middlerealm, the use of magic is not banned. When you first enter the realm of the North, the city of Cahbaet is inaccessible as the city is currently under siege. You normally get there at the very end of In the Underworld during the main quest.

Proclamation of Independence

Background

Taranor Coarek disapproves of Barateon's rule over the entirety of Nehrim and, despite Barateon's continuous attacks, the leader of the Northrealm declared independence from him and his empire. Due to his declaration, Taranor and his soldiers constantly strive to resist the chancellor's attacks. Consequently, his kingdom is devastated and at war.

Flags

All over Cahbaet, there are flags hung up as an expression of the realm's independence. They represent Taranor's coat of arms, the Nord's leader and saviour. In their opinion, without Taranor, they would be mere subjects of the Chancellor.

Notices

The notice addressed to all resistance fighters can be found on many walls in Cahbaet. It says:

'Since generations, this has been our land. Our home. That's why we must fight. Barateon's soldiers rob us of what is ours. They rob and pillage. Take our sons and make them into Chancellor's soldiers. No peace with Barateon.'

People

The people of the Northrealm may appear unsophisticated in comparison with the cultured people of Erothin, yet they are resilient and tough, hardened by severe weather conditions. When a need arises, they will fight to the last man to protect their land and family. At the same time, they are loyal and will always keep their promises. They value bravery and determination most. Individual acts of courage are of extreme value to them. They even have a word, 'Jambora', which refers to the success of the bold and the strong. In Taranor's words: 'The success of the one who dares.'

Entering Cahbaet Early

It is entirely possible to enter Cahbaet before you are supposed to during the main quest due to the topography of the area, as Cahbaet is located on a steep mountain slope and land above it, which allows players to descend into the city. Generally, four vantage points allow access into Cahbaet from the map:

• The normal way
• The long way
• The direct route
• The low-level route

Routes

• The normal way involves taking the path presented at the end of In the Underworld.
• The long way involves going further than what is actually necessary to enter Cahbaet. If coming from the path used during In the Underworld, instead of heading down to the walkway, you keep right on the mountains past all of the killscripts surrounding Cahbaet, Burnt Out City Ring until you reach the square corner as seen on the map below. Nearby is a structure with a roof. Climb on that, and then make your way down to the empty area below. Find the door used to enter the worldspace and activate it. You will now be in Cahbaet. If coming from the low-level path, you can reach this by looping around Cahbaet.
• The direct route starts at Bridge of Stera. If you pan the camera out a bit, you will notice that this location sits directly above Cahbaet. Simply head for the river and go down the mountain, dodging any boulders. You can then easily descend into Cahbaet.
• The low-level route starts from the bend of the mountain where the path forks southwest of the city. Heading north here will bring you to an area where a few wolves reside. Instead of engaging the wolves, keep to the east here and make your way past the open valley. Once you reach the higher portion of the mountain, gain as much height as you can and then head east to swing past two boulders. When you do this, you can then drop down into Cahbaet near The Shepherd's location.

Notes

• The Fortress and Stronghold of Cahbaet are the same thing.
• Cahbaet will slowly repair some of the damage caused by the war by restoring houses during the Main Quest. This includes inside the city and along the road. Some buildings and places, such as the burnt-out city ring and Mortram, however, do not get repaired.
• After the Liberation quest ends, Hanna and Braal’s house is repaired, and another inaccessible house outside of Cahbaet is restored.
• The Guild House and the Big House are restored after The Chancellor’s Fate is completed.
• Two more houses appear (Cahbaet, Haus [Cahbaet, Vacant House] on the south side, and Cahbaet, House [Cahbaet, Longhouse] on the north side of town) after the Impotence of the Almighty is completed. These are the final reparations of the town.
• Cahbaet contains multiple free houses that are unowned and uninhabited: Cahbaet, Shabby House; Cahbaet, Guild House; Cahbaet; Big House; and Cahbaet; Vacant House are all free to use when they appear.
• Cahbaet, House and Cahbaet, Haus are ambiguous as there are two possible buildings they can refer to. 'Haus' in German translates to 'House' in English, which essentially means they both share the same name.
• Display name: Cahbaet, House: Cahbaet, Longhouse was renamed based on its Editor ID, CahbaetLangesHaus. The ID is named for the length of the house, not because it is an actual longhouse that Indians use.
• Display name: Cahbaet, Haus: Cahbaet, Vacant House was renamed since no one lives in that particular house, and it is not owned. This refers to the inn-like house across from the prison.

Bugs

• On one of the loading screens, Cahbaet is mispelled as ‘Cahbeat’.
• The Cahbaet gate lacks the script that the Erothin gate has to open it. This means the player is essentially stuck during Daring the Sortie if they are somehow underleveled, and don't have money or good gear to kill a battlemage in the sewers to progress with the quest. This also applies to players who entered Cahbaet early. See also Daring the Sortie Sequence Break.
