Features[]

The stern Lord's tower overlooks Lord Egen's small but verdant land. Black banners fly above the gates because the castle is currently in mourning
  • The village, Egen lands contain several expansive dairy farms, a source of pride for the people of this mountainous region. Cheeses from Egen farms are traded in Gulltown. Houses on Egen lands perch precariously on the sides of the striking mountains that make the Vale so unique.
