The Kalimvaran encampment on the Island of Torica, Meretokis was laid out much as one would design a military camp, as that was largely what it functioned as. The former buildings and bungalows existing on that side of the island had been replaced with solid structures in neat ordered lines. The former headquarters of the Knights of the Golden Rose served as the main keep, and prison. As traditional among the Kinjarin elite, Captain Malikos lived amongst his men, his living quarters indiscernible from those under his command.
In the center of the encampment sat the fighting pit, a crudely put together arena that was slowly being built up to a grander scale. This pit seemed to be the only form of centralized entertainment, for while the Kalimvarans are known to imbibe a particularly weak red wine known as Apaellia, they do not do so in any sort of traditional tavern. The Kalimvarans built no monuments, and left those that were built before to stand. They expanded the drydock, although Kalimvaran ship building was to limited to simple triremes.
The remains of Meretokis sat empty after the Rising, but in recent years Toricans have begun to reclaim the abandoned land again, building new huts and shops, including the now famous hat shoppe.
