A keep is a medieval fortress generally within castle/city walls used to protect/garrison troops and civilians. During the event of a siege (attack against a settlement) important political figures would be stationed inside the keep. This is because the keep is a heavily fortified bunker that could withstand major attacks and generally where heavily defended.
