The cities and villages of Melrath are as varied and diverse as they come. The capital of Raelia is the the jewel of this western kingdom, playing host to a merchants, artisans, Aesir priests, as well as a cut throat political landscape dominated by the nobles of Raelia. To the south in the depths of the Myrkvior Forest lies Melrath's second largest, and oldest city, Fensalir. Here people have learned to live alongside spirits and the natural world by maintaining their loyalty to traditions laid down the first Melrathi. To the east lies the small fishing village of Noatun, and to the western mountains rests the Mer city of Verimeer, the brewing town of Alivilda and the alpine village Vormund.

11th Cylus, 723
Slowly, a black cat stalked through the streets of Melrath.
Controlling the body of another human was useful. But manipulating an animal was something else entirely. Truth be told, Irkall hated it. It was alien. It was powerless. What could a small cat like this do to defend...
Having seen her share of the victims of prolonged spiritual and ghostly possession, Srinnia had instructed Sævar of the signs that people tended to suffer. Prolonged bouts of apathy, lethargy, and deathly pall. Sævar couldn't help scoffing at that. Sounded like...
15th Cylus, 723
To the people of Melrath! To our great nation and to the Spirits that have blessed the Arc to come!

Jasper knelt before the shrine to Myrkvior at the edge of the forest outside his childhood home of Alivilda. His eyes were closed as he meditated not for anything specific but just to find peace for this trials event. He felt a bit empty but not as...
I'm not doing the whole trip on foot. Azrael complained as he adjusted his saddle on his horse a little bit. It never seemed to sit quite right. Tollak Ra, the Ydalir ranger who'd become somewhat of a friend to the mortalborn without ever...
4 Ymiden 720 | Azrael Blackfire | Fensalir, The Old Ruin
