The home of the Queen of Falena, as well as the rest of the Royal family, for over 200 years, the Sun Palace is protected by both the Queen's Knights and, following SY 450, the Sun Palace Dragon Brigade, as well as numerous guards. Located in the centre of the capital, the Sun Palace is one of Sol-Falena's most famous landmarks. Sol-Falena has rarely seen invasions reach its shores, but in the year 449, the Godwin family, along with Nether Gate, managed to take control of the Sun Palace and Sol-Falena, resulting in the entire government being under their control until the year 450 when Prince Freyjadour Falenas' Loyalist Army managed to reclaim Sol-Falena from the Godwin forces. From the north, the Ashtwal Mountains form a natural, mountainous barrier, and the military fortress of Stormfist and the Revolving Bridge form strategic defences from the west and east, respectively. It is also home to the Sol-Falena dam, which is capable at overflowing the lake, making a naval invasion of the capital impossible. The largest structure within Falena is the Sun Palace, home to the Falenan Royal Family for over two hundred years. Sol-Falena was designed from its very start to function as the capital of Falena, and as such has a number of natural defences to prevent it from being taken over by any advancing army it was build up upon the banks of the Feitas where it swells into a lake, and has expanded outwards via several artificial islands connected by bridges, making a ground invasion from the south difficult. Beyond this, Sol-Falena has little industry, but it is a bustling town in its own right, and one of the most populous areas found in Falena. Both the former Falenan Senate as well as the New Parliament met in Sol-Falena. It is home to the Falenas Royal Family, the Sun Rune, and it is of a great political importance. Sol-Falena has been the capital of the Falena Queendom since the year 212, when Khorshed Falenas moved the capital from the city of Stormfist to Sol-Falena.
