Cape Beytes (Arithide Beytes Tavas ['beitɛs 'tavas]) is a cape in Tannaea province on the northern reach of the Issol A'i, located on the eastern edge of the Chisthian Sea, on the continent of Marcasia. The cape is also the site of the city of Tannea, capital of the province, and which grew out of a 8th century CIE citadel: due to its strategic location overlooking the strait so vital to international trade, the cape, along with its counterpart on the southern shore 16km away, Cape Somorra, has always been strongly fortified. Today, the Arithian Soldierate retains a presence there in the form of Fort Lessanes.
