Letens, the capital of the southern nation of Tensia, begins as a grim, fortress-like city defined by its prison, theatre, and orphanage complexes, serving as a symbol of Tensia’s rigid social order. Across the series, the city transforms from a backdrop of oppression into a crucible of rebellion, its institutions repurposed as staging grounds for uprisings and political realignments. By the later books, Letens emerges as a contested heart of the Hierarchy’s southern territories, its once-impenetrable walls now scarred by conflict and its population divided between loyalists and revolutionaries.
