Tempus Keep

Fort Tempus was built after the Great Fire of Shirekeep in 4030 ASC during the reign of Kaiser B'Caw I. Revolts against the Babkhans and Anticans during this period (as they were seen as those responsible behind an evil plot to split Shireroth) led to violence and riots in the streets. The city guard couldn't avoid that the people began burning down several houses. The houses in the Antican and Babkhan Quarters were, however, relatively old and not very fire safe. It ended up in one of the largest fires that Shireroth had seen in 5,000 years: the largest parts of the city south of the Elwynn were destroyed. Kaiser B'Caw I gave the order to build a fortress on the place where no houses were standing anymore.
