Viroleda

The city developed a particular style of sword fighting called Viroledan Naev'de Feaine Glaeddyv used when facing multiple opponents. Viroledan masters of this style were said to be able to fight nine opponents simultaneously.

Notes

• The books and games defer in the demonym of the city. In the books, it has been shown as Viroledanian and Viroledian, but in the games it's Viroledan.
• Geralt once received a fake Viroledan sword from Dandelion, though the bard did not realize it was a fake. Pinety had a real sword from Viroleda, which he later gave to the witcher.
• Every sword from Viroleda has their famous motto engraved on the blade: "Draw me not without reason; sheath me not without honour".

Trivia

• It is quite possibly inspired by the historical Spanish city of Toledo.
