THE LORE OF LIED-SIEG
Upon entering this land, you will notice that the ideas of goodness and happiness seem to be distant memories. The world as it’s known is a dark and lawless realm of which only the strongest survive, be there the chance that one is strong enough to survive, be that physically, mentally or magically strong.

The world as such is known as Aldan, in an ancient language of the first to settle this land, the name means “Land of Broken Ambitions” in which the world the world shows to be an unforgiving expanse of different lands. The world is known for being lethal and unforgiving to those who try to survive without a strong will and intelligence.

Aldan is a land known to be filled with many creatures, plagues and the world has a tendency to have an effect on the most weak-willed of beings. To the north, one might be lucky not to run into the warmongering clans of a savage age. To the west one must dodge the many hateful creatures, chimeras and dragons waiting to eat your livings or yourselves if one is too unlucky. The southern sandplains full of the ancient undead of human and other races, willing to come back and destroy all so that their empires may continue. The east is full of creatures of an odd nature, a world of mystery and wondrous sights, though these appear to be a trap for a darker intention.

The land as a whole is divided, to the west the great kingdoms, with the glorious armoured knights, spires of gold and marble, hiding lies wrapped in piety and politics. Their gods few, their religion often brutal and harsh to those around them. Every man and woman that is born into the peasantry is owned by the lords of the lands, however the system offers tall walls and partially safe streets to exist upon.

The south exists the Askari Dynasty, a large sandy empire, wealth and power rule all. It’s armies are made of slaves, it’s power undisputable in it’s lands. With varied soldiers, tribes and people, the land holds a bountiful chance to survive. However the ruling bodies and the gods are often not the most accepting and those that attempt to live there, are often ridiculed for the slightest difference.

The North is home to the barbaric kingdom of Eberwolf, a large expanse, controlled by warlords and chieftains of multiple tribes. Their gods are many and they often show that invading their land is futile. With wintery conditions and mountains abundant. However it is the people there, who are truly dangerous. Sacrifices, forced marriage and slavery is not uncommon, lawlessness and bandits join the warlords army in fear of retribution.

The neutral dwarven kingdoms in the middle of these grande countries, hides it’s dark secrets, it’s walls and unsiege-able defenses, traded for freedom and the will to exist. The land there is darker than usual, however it is not the harshest of places to exist. A sacrifice to live in security, a sacrifice of freedom to exist amongst many.

Stories and greatness have been hidden, make your stance and become known for more than a slave to fate.
