Orkney
Orkney stands as a testament to the unyielding spirit of nature, where the raw forces of the Firefang Jags are most untamed. The province is a realm of jagged peaks and shadowed valleys, where roaring winds carve their path through narrow canyons, and the sound of distant rockfalls is a constant reminder of the land’s peril. Here, danger is not a threat—it is a way of life.
This rugged territory is the home of the Unruly Frelheid, a fiercely independent people who reject rule and thrive on the freedom of their wilderness. Their scattered enclaves, such as those near Ashtaste Lake and Azeula Fortress, are places of both refuge and defiance, blending seamlessly into the wild landscape. The Frelheid are known for their tenacity, thriving amidst the perilous beauty of Orkney, from the high passes of Baanpath to the hidden secrets of Shilwood.
The region teems with life adapted to its harsh conditions. Coalpine Goats traverse the treacherous cliffs with uncanny ease, while the elusive Ashrats dart through the valleys, evading both predators and adventurers. Among the dangers are the fearsome Freybugs, creatures of fire and shadow that stalk the unwary. Even the flora here, like the resilient Starflower, speaks of survival in the face of adversity, thriving amidst ash-strewn soils and rocky crevices.
Legends tell of ancient secrets buried in Orkney's depths, treasures hidden within the mountains or buried in the fertile valleys. The Frelheid, while wary of outsiders, are keepers of these mysteries, guarding their taken lands with unwavering resolve. Orkney is not a place for the faint-hearted, but for those seeking uncharted adventures, its wild beauty and untamed spirit offer rewards unlike any other. Here, freedom is more than a way of life—it is the beating heart of the land.
