The Teachings of Krothuum
Krothuum was a scar of stone and dust on the southern grasslands of Zhuru. Its walls were low, cracked things, more a mark of pride than a bulwark, and the gates gaped like broken teeth. Smoke clung above the city, not the holy incense of temples but the choking reek of coal-pits and forges, of …
Tale of a Bare Bodied Dancer
The tavern at the edge of the hinterlands was a tomb of smoke and stale mead, its rafters heavy with the stink of leather and sweat. The day’s victory had been bought in blood and ash, though what profit it yielded none could say. It was one of those ruinous campaigns, where mercenary contracts promised …
Tymere – The Gilded Mire
Tymere stands as a land that mistakes endurance for stability. It was never broken as Vulsa was, nor cursed as Roedon became—its wounds were not cataclysmic, but septic.

Roedon – The Broken Crown of the West

Rogue of the North
Prologue During the destructive and costly campaign through the northern Roedon territories, the imperial host of Zhuru came into direct conflict with the snow leopard peoples—native to the high valleys and glacier-fed passes. These leopards, though scattered and loosely bound by clan and oath, proved more than capable of resisting the organized military formations of …
Elder Ruselon – The Pentapolis of Civilization
What is called Elder Ruselon in the modern tongue was not always one city. In ages long past, five separate settlements rose upon the terraces and valleys of the Konara mountains, each claiming its own plateau or basin, each thriving in its own trade or sanctity. Time, commerce, conquest, and cataclysm wore away their walls …
