Blazon Arch is a human settlement in Horizon Zero Dawn.
Description[]
Blazon Arch is a sparsely populated[1] harbor settlement located on the northern edge of the Daybrink.
Like that of most Carja settlements, Blazon Arch's infrastructure is comprised largely of sandstone with copper fixtures. Its namesake is a massive archway rivaling the ones seen in Meridian.
While under the control of the Shadow Carja, Blazon Arch mainly served as an outpost for the army.
History[]
Blazon Arch was founded by Sun-King Zavarad to commemorate his successful expedition across the Daybrink, expanding the Sundom further north than ever before.[2]
In response to the disappearance of his brother and predecessor Iriv, Sun-King Basadid ordered a garrison of the Carja army to be permanently stationed at Blazon Arch.[2]
Many injured adventurers returning from the Forbidden West were brought to Blazon Arch to be treated by Considerate Udain, most of which were near death, poisoned, mortally wounded or driven witless. Despite his best efforts, the best he could do was try to ease their pain while documenting their tales before they passed away.[3]
Horizon Zero Dawn[]
After the Liberation of Meridian, Blazon Arch fell under control of the Shadow Carja, representing the southern border of Shadow Carja territory. However, after the Battle of the Alight ended in the Shadow Carja's defeat, Blazon Arch, along with the rest of Shadow Carja territory, was returned back to the Carja.
