| Introduction |
The source of
the kingdom's power is in the Silver Oak, which is in the heart of
Liamelia. Prayer upon spell upon prayer layers the Oak, protecting
both outside and in. Corellon Larethian charged
the ground itself for the laying of the Devine Mythal to protect the
Silver Oak and the kingdom that would be created there. The parts of Liamelia Forest that was
rumoured
to combust and incinerate any adventures have become nodes of power for
the wizards and sorcerers of Liamelia. These are just some to the
rumours that has made it's way from merchant to merchant, from bard to
bard, from adventurer to adventurer.The Living Vault: is rumoured to exist in the Sliver Oak at the heart of Liamelia. This vault holds no gold but instead is a stockade of sentient items, artifacts and even relics from before the weave itself. Stronger more enchanted items are also thought to be in the vault though only Lothorion knows as he keeps an active inventory. The Silver Scouts: much like the Harpers in the northern lands, the Silver Scouts are the elite of the elite of Liamelian forces. Silver Scouts are a regional prestige class and rank applicable only to hose who reside in Liamelia and undertake the vicious trainings. It is the job of the scouts to recognize and detect danger and trouble in the surrounding regions of the Elven forest. It has been said that foresters that make their way to Liamelia Forest from Chondath often don't make it back, with little of no trace of them left behind. Ancient Enemies: The Elves and other nearby settlements around Liamelia Forest have noticed an increased of Goblin and Orcish tribes that make their way across the plains from the southeast towards the Elven kingdom. Tribe after tribe has been eliminated through the years but now the numbers seem a bit more frequent. Is this the case of stupid Goblins and Orcs or is there another power at work? Sabotage: Merchant ships that make their way to the city-states of Chondath have recently been disappearing. Chondath instantly blames the Elves to the south, knowing that the elves have kin that live in the waters. The Elves counter argues that it is the work of pirates, who live among The Pirate Isles in the Sea of Fallen Stars, which have been raiding The Vilhon Reach. Slithering Danger: Visitors and residents of Liamelia have recently noticed an increased number of snakes along The Naga Flow River. At night, several have claimed to see snakes as long as 20 to 30 feet. Others have added to that claim as sole responsibility to the disappearance of cattle, live stock and trade goods. Some folk have gone as far as claiming members of their parties have gone missing while gathering water and such from the river. Authorities have looked into the accusations but have found nothing out of the ordinary. Many believe that unknown snake-like creatures are gathering in the area with foul intent. |
