Protoshliti (building)
Next: Protoshliti Apokatas
The Champion Grounds, or Protoshliti, is a great fortress built on land granted to Legio XLII 'Pride of Aversaria' for their exemplary performance in the Kartharaddi Wars. After being retired as an active legion, Legio XLII took up the task of training the most exceptional recruits of the Aversarian State Legions. Those who are trained in the Protoshliti by its venerated instructors are likely to become champions themselves, and many of Aversaria's legendary heroes within the Legions would have their stories begin from inside its halls.
This would come to an end in the Legion Affair during the Imperial Civil War, when Aautokratir Aeschraes, discovering that Legio XLII had been harboring refugees from both sides of the conflict, began a systematic purge of the Legions. The Protoshliti was stormed by Aeschraes' forces, who slew its grandmasters and tore down the fortress with Magic, leaving nothing but corpses in their wake.
