The Province of Aine Aevon is the easternmost region under the control of the
Kasari Dominion. Aine Aevon is predominantly a province of elves and forest gnomes, and is the remnants of an ancient colony of the
Elventine Empire. Given its location it also has significant numbers of
Dragonborn and humans.
Geography
Aine Aevon is a country dominated by the thick and ancient woodlands which take up the vast majority of its landmass. Rivers are also a common sight within Aine Aevon and used as a source of transport and food.
Race Relations
The people of Aine Aevon care little for the race of a person, caring more for what they can contribute to society. This is not to say there are no tensions, and the people of Aine Aevon display an innate distrust of outsiders.
Views on Arcane Magic
The people of Aine Aevon had a long history of utilising arcane, and other forms of magic, to benefit their peoples as was the case in the
Elventine Empire. This all came to an end when they became a part of the
Kasari Dominion and were forced to publically take on their outlook upon magic.
The
Kasari Dominion has amongst the worst outlooks upon magic and mages of
Human kingdoms. The Kingdom proclaims that magic is the most dangerous force in all of Runetalras, and has led to the greatest catastrophe in all of history, the
Age of Blood . Magic is outlawed within the
Kasari Dominion, all who are capable of casting it save for the priests of the
Radiant Lady are condemned to among the worst
Arcane Bastille in all of Runetalras.
History
Aine Aevon was a colony of the
Elventine Empire millennia ago, but the Age of Conquest brought an end to the
Elventine Empire and set Aine Aevon on a listless and lesser path. Aine Aevon was devastated by being cut off from empire, and from attack and conquest from humanity, specifically the Fylkes and Kasari Kingdoms.
It was in this degraded state that Aine Aevon was conquered by the
Kasari Dominion, and granted its limited freedom in return for its abandonment of what remained of its culture and religion.
Religion
The Church of the
Crimson Flame is the official religion of the
Kasari Dominion and is the most popular religion of the kingdom. The Church is fully integrated into the state structure of the
Kasari Dominion. The dogma of the
Crimson Flame is based upon belief that the
Radiant Lady is the only true faith. The
Crimson Flame believe that arcane magic and mages are the greatest threat to all good people of the world, as mages have incredible power with little control; this is demonstrated in the numbers of mages practising forbidden magics, summoning of fiends, and creation of
Weave Aberrations all of which wreak havoc and destruction upon the faithful.
Despite the illegality, there are other deities and faiths worshipped within the
Kasari Dominion, some of these are the
Seldarine is the most popular pantheon among forest gnomes and elves, and the
Morndinsamman among dwarves and rock gnomes. Likewise the
Draconic Pantheon are favoured among the draconic races.
