Well, that only took forever. I've been quite busy in Venice, though of course that's no excuse. Also, FO4. Daaamn.
Some notes:
1) I'm not sure to what extent my description of Redcliffe is topical. While I've been very interested in the refugee crisis facing Europe and the Near East this year, this was not consciously an influence on my writing. Obviously, the experience of being a refugee is fairly universal, so applicability is there if you want it to be.
2) Redcliffe is a 18th-century style fortified city -- a star fort writ large. Most European cities and towns worth mentioning used to have fortifications like that, which often could get quite elaborate. Unfortunately, maintenance costs, urban sprawl and changes in warfare made them obsolete, and very few still survive. Redcliffe is an exception, mainly because local government never got around to demolishing their fortifications until they were turned into a heritage site.
3) Technobabble! Basically take my word for all the magitek stuff.
