Oakedge is a small town situated on the edge of the
Vegepygmy Forest in the
Kingdom of Veritria. Known to be an industrial town, the settlement was formed to supply the kingdom with a plentiful supply of wood and iron ore from the mines within the nearby forest.
Dark Blight
One evening, a group of soldiers, led by the
Duke of Miston, came to Oakedge and burned the town to the ground. They killed almost all of the residence, taking a few prisoners. A local girl named
Alina Van De Hout managed to evade capture by hiding in a secret compartment under the floor of her house, though she couldn’t hide from the screams of the dying town’s people that haunt her to this day. Nobody from her family survived and she had to fend for herself for weeks.
It was weeks until a group of travellers passed through Oakedge and found her. There she met Balfor, Grognak, Qildor, Zook and Joy, who decided to take her with them – rescuing her from the horrors of the smouldering ashes of her former home.
