Arydus


    This city represents a land of both valor and deceit. A city where one's innocence can be shattered, and the transition from man to hero made all too early. The common need for a trading port halfway across the sea has brought dwarves, elves, and men together to successfully defend against the threat of Lithlore's Kingdom.  expanding into their territory at the southern tip of Venosu.

    While the kingdoms of the west and east meet here in common defense, neither allows the other a strong enough grip upon the power structure of the city or armies to allow an advantage in battle, should the need to arise to wrest full control of the land.

    Since the fall of Zarukai and Litchlore the Northlands became far less perilous, though one would still be a fool to leave the security of the walled city.  In the confusion following the war in Wardoluf the leadership of the city changed hands and was briefly ruled by Melrose, the Queen of Mordor until her strange disappearance. 

    In the past Lithlore's armies and other dark foes often attacked by the coast, fearing to brave the heights of the southern ridges of the Mountains. With evil to the north, and constant dissension between the mixed races and kingdoms, this city is never short of danger and intrigue.

  The walls of Arydus were restored and trade re-established during Queen Melrose's reign, promising a far brighter and more profitable future for the beleagured citizens who have come to know all too many sorrows and hardships.

   All that it awaits now, is a ruler with the strength, courage, wisdom and charisma to lead it towards a new destiny.
