Rin

Rin is the official Seat of the King and capital of the Kingdom of Ascalon. It is located on the western side of the kingdom, south of the Nolani Academy.

Rin became capital when Drascir, the ancient former capital, fell into the hands of the Charr long ago.

Since the Searing Rin now also lays in ruins and Ascalon City has effectively taken over as the unofficial capital of Ascalon. However, King Adelbern still holds his throne in Rin and tries to organize the defense against the Charr from there with his son Prince Rurik.

In the PvE campaign, during the Nolani Academy mission, players find out that Rin was burned by the Charr and was about to fall into their hands. After saving the city with the aid of players and the legendary horn Stormcaller, Prince Rurik and many Ascalonians decide to flee their homeland through the Northern Shiverpeaks and accept the invitation of shelter in Kryta.

Rin is also one of the three destinations to which the Lich Lord sends his army of Titans during the last two missions of the game.
