Tír an Ri
Tír an rí is a remarkable district nestled within the heart of the Forest Nation of Koterii, offering a vivid tapestry of both nature and culture. This land is defined by its rich, evergreen canopies that stretch endlessly, sheltering the tribes of the Coilledaoine people, the wood elves known for their harmony with the forest. The nomadic traditions of these tribes are intertwined with their deep reverence for the Rí, the king who embodies their governance and the protector of their realm, as well as Gaii'nus, the goddess of Earth and fertility, whose blessings are sought for bountiful hunts and abundant harvests.
At the center of Tír an rí lies the ancient and enigmatic fortress of Fothrach. Once a stronghold constructed by an enemy, it has now been reclaimed and repurposed under the benevolent rule of the Rí. Although in ruins, the fortress serves as the capital of the region, its weathered stones echoing past conflicts while standing tall as a symbol of resilience and unity among the tribes. Fothrach is also the sole point of contact for outsiders, where trade and exchange create a vibrant marketplace for wares and crafts unique to the Coilledaoine culture.
The bustling Forest-road connects Fothrach to neighboring lands, providing a crucial artery for commerce and communication. This path, often regarded as sacred, is the only safe passage for those wishing to engage with the wood elves, allowing the exchange of goods while maintaining the balance between isolation and interaction with the outside world.
In Tír an rí, the intertwined destinies of the land, its people, and their guardianship create a realm steeped in tradition, magic, and the unwavering spirit of the forest. Visitors are welcomed to admire not only the lush splendor that surrounds them but also the resilience of a culture that thrives in harmony with nature, guided by their Rí and the divine influence of Gaii’nus.
