Tír an ard-Draoi
Tír an ard-Draoi is a vast, mystical expanse in the northern reaches of Koterii, governed by the ard-Draoi. This area is emblematic of The Coilledaoine’s deep-rooted connection to nature and the spiritual world. It encompasses the formidable Druids Peak with its rugged, towering presence and the rolling foothills that cradle ancient groves, hidden clearings, and sacred glens. The lands stretch northward to embrace a wild, windswept coastal boundary where the relentless forces of the ocean merge with the enduring spirit of the land, reinforcing the region’s ethereal character.
At the heart of this revered territory lies the ard-Draoi’s encampment, Garrán an Draoi. Perched on a natural plateau about halfway up Druids Peak, this encampment occupies a unique, exalted position. It is here, at the source of the Draoi’s river—a clear, life-giving stream emerging from ancient springs—that the spiritual energy of the land converges. This river is more than a waterway; it is a symbol of renewal and the sacred flow between earth and spirit, resonating with the teachings and blessings of Gaii'nus.
In Tír an ard-Draoi, every element of the landscape and every ritual conducted at Garrán an Draoi contributes to a living tapestry of natural wonder and sacred duty. The ard-Draoi, as the spiritual guardian of this region, upholds traditions that weave together the mysticism of Druids Peak, the nurturing flow of the Draoi’s river, and the raw, untamed beauty of the northern coast. This intimate relationship between land and lore defines the essence of the Coilledaoine’s northern domain.
