Emotha Collective
An alliance of various city states that represent most of the arable land in Ellebore and civilization in the western half of the continent. While each city has a sphere of influence, there are still parts of the land overrun with bandits and the occasional monster.
At the end of the War of the Mad, Wexwood came out of their fortress to find the world changed. While this had once been a military outpost, it could well now be the only stronghold of civilization left. But it was not, further south survivors came together to found the city of Haven on the bank of the Brisshall River.
At some point of time later a group of elves from Umberfell came north looking for a harbor and finding the village of Dreford, moved in, and promptly began to build a city. While the dwarves, finding Kelvern dead, chose to make a new capital city above the lake that was all that remained of his empire.
For many years these cities were busy clearing the land and finding a way to make a living. Even now not all of the lands are cleared, but the cities were prospering and there was plenty of land for everyone. Each had found their own specialties and had amicable trading relationships with the others. Initially proposed by the Tyrant of Dreford, it formalized those relationships and strengthened the bonds between the four cities. Signed at Emotha Bluff (a mid-point between the four cities) this agreement became known as the Emotha Accords.
