The Lands Of MultiMUD : Keorangar
|
 |
Whether a Human, Orc, Elf, or any other race, all find a home
in Keorangar. Dominated by the populous city of Freyburg, Keorangar
is additionally home to the pleasant tree of the Elves, the Human city
of Midgaard, the caves of the Dwarves, the dark tunnels of the Orcs,
the pleasant land of the Hobbits, and even the eerie castle of the
Vampires.
"Well, I can't rightly be sure, but late some nights the eastern wind
sounds almost like laughter... and more than one traveler has returned
from that place so close to death that the clerics were up all night,
praying for healing. I'd not travel there accompanied by King Welmar's
army, let alone by myself... unless the reward was plentiful enough."
- Laran Thalimar, Midgaard Peacekeeper
In addition to the diversity brought into Keorangar by the multitude of
races which call its lands home, the great island offers much for
those who enjoy wandering to see and admire. The magnificent castle of
His Majesty, King Welmar, lies but a short distance north of well-known
Freyburg. Ancient tales speak of a sunken ship far to the west, and
the war-scarred city of Kerofk defends Keorangar from eastern attacks.
"Beware! There be monsters in those woods! Big as a house! And
the teeth!"
- Half-mad wanderer, taken into custody the Western Road.
Although its populous cities make Keorangar fairly safe, the surrounding
forests and outlying villages can offer quite the battle for even
experienced heroes. Though some cities such as Ankh-Morpork are
relatively friendly, Midgaard children know not to venture too far into
the woods, and tales in Kerofk speak of the dead walking again.
"He..he was like a man, but with skin of steel, next to some
glowing witchery. He came right for me, but my good sword Lanaver
spoke true and sent him off to his home. I don't know what else is out
there, but I'd not leave the Northern road."
-Teor Aethoran, wandering knight, offering advice to a squire.
