({{hover|ダーナ|Dāna}} ''Darna'') is a fortress city located in the midst of the [[Yied Desert]] in [[Jugdral]].  An oasis amidst a harsh desert, Darna is considered a sacred site in Jugdrali culture, as it is where the [[Miracle of Darna]] took place.

Late in the regime of the [[Loptyr Empire]], Darna Fortress was the headquarters last refuge of the revolution against the Empire's grasp, and by Grann 632 the dwindling remnant of the rebellion had barricaded itself within Darna, knowing they were only delaying their inevitable defeat.  Their fortunes changed with the descent of [[Naga]] and eleven other [[dragon]]s upon Darna, an event known as the [[Miracle of Darna]]; the dragons conferred their powers upon twelve of the warriors within, transforming them into the [[Twelve Crusaders]].

Following the Loptyr Empire's downfall and the rise of the modern nations of Jugdral, Darna came to be regarded as a holy site by Jugdral's people, particularly in [[Grannvale]].  As such, in Grann 757 when reports arrived in Grannvale of an assault on the city by the armies of [[Isaach]] (in reality, only the handiwork of [[Isaach#Rivough|Rivough]]<ref>{{Cite|The leader of Rivough... He's the one who besieged Darna, not my father.|[[Ayra]]|Seisen no Keifu}}</ref>), Grannvale declared war on Isaach, a war which Isaach ultimately lost.  In the aftermath of the [[Battle of Belhalla]], the dancer [[Sylvia]] left her children, [[Corpul]] and [[Leen]], in the Darna convent before disappearing.<ref>{{Cite|'''Leen:''' So you're an orphan, too, huh...

In the intervening years, Darna came under the leadership of [[Bramsel]], a former merchant, referred to as the city's Count.  Under Bramsel, Darna acted as a servant state to the Grannvale Empire.<ref>{{Cite|Count Bramsel over there at Darna Castle is the worst!
