| − | Kasitor's most well-known feature is a massive [[spren]] known as Cusicesh, the Protector. The spren resides in the city's bay. There is a viewing platform at the docks to accommodate the large crowds which congregate daily to observe Cusicesh emerging from the water, occuring at precisely seven forty-six in the morning. Four golden pedestals are also located in the bay where the spren's arms fall into the sea.{{book ref|sa1|i|5}} |
