The world of Eldrin mirrors Earth in geography, but its history, cultures, and powers are uniquely its own. Eldrin’s lands stretch vast and varied, following the familiar rhythms of the sun and moon. The passing of time is measured in a familiar way with days, weeks, and years aligning to the steady march of the seasons. Though its cultures and kingdoms are distinct, the flow of time remains as constant as the turning of the stars.

  Kingdoms rise and fall through war, trade, and political intrigue, while magic and faith intertwine with everyday life. The land is divided among nations, each with their own rulers, laws, and religious devotions. The continent of Westoria, known in another world as Europe, is home to sprawling empires, warring city-states, and hidden enclaves untouched by outsiders.

  Situated in the southern heart of Westoria, Italios is a land of wealth and decadence. Nobility rules with an iron grip, maintaining control through economic dominance, mercenary forces, and political marriages.

  Far to the south of Italios, past large pyramidal structures, vast dunes of sand, and a choppy sea lies Vaelwyn. Vaelwyn is located off the east coast the large southern continent. It is a mystical island where animal-like creatures thrive in harmony with nature, guided by the ancient spirits of the land. The island is a land shaped by ancient magic, where towering forests, misty highlands, and golden plains shape the lives of those who call it home. The animal folk of Vaelwyn form tribes and settlements, each attuned to their environment, working together for survival while honoring the ancestral spirits that watch over them.
