«Warmed by Her Light…»

Welcome to Lumendale

✯ ━━━━━━ ✿ ✫ ✿ ━━━━━━ ✯

A village in the heart of the Valley, where peace seems eternal. Here, it’s easy to forget that the world beyond the outskirts can be different. Stop at the edge of a field. Breathe in. The warmth of the sun and the whisper of the wind — this is Her presence. Florencia watches over these lands, yet does not make them invulnerable.

Shadows of a different kind lurk beneath the idyll. Darkness can bloom where you least expect it.

The weathered stone beneath the young tree of the temple remembers times when other voices echoed here. Beneath your feet lies the darkness of the catacombs, stretching down who knows how deep. And the edge of the Forbidden Forest stands as a silent wall, guarding what the living have chosen to forget.

Here, one can live a life — a simple, honest one, full of routine. Find friends. Discover love. Or stray from the well‑worn path and learn why the true guardians of these lands are not mortals at all.

The initial setting

✯ ━━━━━━ ✿ ✫ ✿ ━━━━━━ ✯

A village, a temple complex on the hills, and its surroundings.

Amberland Valley

A boundless expanse of fertile lowlands in western Orynthia. The favorable climate makes the valley the granary of the kingdom: the region's villages cultivate vast fields and orchards, growing agricultural crops — from grains and vegetables to flax, hops, and grapes. According to legend, these lands are marked by the blessing of Florencia herself. Winters here are mild but snowy, and spring brings frequent river floods. The heart of the region is the majestic city of Stormcrest.

City of Stormcrest

The jewel of the Amberland Valley, sprawled along the banks of a wide river. Here beats the heart of the entire land — markets trading in grain, flour, wine, and dwarven steel, wide cobbled streets, and high tiled roofs. The air is filled with the clang of hammers from smithies, the cries of heralds, and the noise of taverns. The city houses temples to some of the good and lawful gods, and atop a hill stands the ancient castle of the local lord. Branch of the Mercenary Guild are also located here.
