Previously known colloquially as Bastion, its name now represents a pact made between two civilizations for mutual protection in a hostile world. Known as a hub of technology and innovation before the Flare, it was prepared a little better than other cities may have been for the impending catastrophe. While its energy infrastructure was destroyed nonetheless, other pieces of vital technology such as hospital equipment remained as measures were taken in time to protect them, and the citys nature as a technological hub made this possible on short notice. The result was not major destruction as many other cities faced, yet eventually the city still lay abandoned. Without huge amounts of energy, the city - situated in the middle of a desert - struggled when there were no other immediate means of creating food or long-term access to safe water. With time, more and more people left believing it to be doomed, only to realize other places were not necessarily in a better state. A small contingent of people, wandering the now mostly-abandoned city, could survive reasonably well under these circumstances - evading the attention major cities and areas received that others had turned to. After all, who would try their luck to find remnants of civilization in the middle of a barren desert? That is, until the complete breakdown of society led to the creation of raider gangs that roamed the lands. But when the dragons appeared, the energy and technology they brought helped to quickly restore some parts of the city to its former glory. Many areas still lie empty and in various states of (dis)repair, but with the dragons help, Covenant City has become what may be the most livable place on Earth.
