Aberden is a fortified city built by the dwarves within a mountain, and is the capital of the Nucholian Empire.
History
Access
There are very few ways to access Aberden, and most humanoids live and die without seeing the inside. The first and most common method is to be a dwarf, or to have a significant dwarven lineage. This generally limits the potential pool of visitors to citizens of the Nucholian Empire. Having a dwarven lineage can include marrying a dwarf of high status, such as one in the royal family. Kaladin Rakkan gained entrance to Aberden this way, by marrying Lovreas Jaderiver. The second method is to perform a large act of heroism for a dwarf, allowing them to personally vouch for your entrance. Mahilk Chad and El gained access this way, along with Kaladin, by saving Lovreas's life at the hands of Fiouvaux.
Aberden is guarded by Doorman, who sits at the top of the mountain which serves as the entrance. Doorman asks for family lineages before access is allowed. Permanent spells prohibiting teleportation into Aberden were put in place by Thordan Leadbow.
