Denuria

These people lived hidden below Orebo for a long time, but met their end when king Edon wanted them gone from the catacombs. Having lived there for generations and the catacombs being their sacred place, they refused. Edon's workers came down and tried to force them to leave, but still, they stayed and tried to defend their home. But to no avail, the king's resources severely outmatched their own, and they then met their demise.

Naming Traditions

Family names

First comes the personal name, and then a name to show belonging. Personal names are short, usually one or two syllables. The second name is either a family name or an occupation.

Culture

Major language groups and dialects

Because of their seclusion, the denurians do not speak the current "version" of common. They can understand the modern version of the language, but many words may sound different or have a shift in meaning.

Common Myths and Legends
