The Hundred Kingdoms
Over the Hills And Far Away...[edit]
Telleimare[edit]
Telleimare is a fairly prosperous land, not bordering the Yellow Forest, ruled by its king for the last one hundred years by the virtue of Terrestrial Exaltation. King Archer Oak's ambitions are focused on the safety of his kingdom, and is content to rule the realm he was born to inherit decades ago. The culture is rather European in style, though it is blended with the cultures of other lands, even as far as the Realm! One of the things of note, beyond the fact he is a king with not much ambition, is his jester, Vert Cyrano. The man is from the somewhat infamous Cyrano family, all jesters across the kingdoms, and Vert is one of the finest of his generation (although he is mentally ill and a bit nuttier than a fruitcake).
A kingdom of mostly Western influences, mostly peaceful, but has many connections that most do not realize.
Seven Iron Meadows[edit]
Seven Iron Meadows, named for the seven cities that make up this forest kingdom, and the mysterious pillars of iron in each meadow that give the cities their names (each is covered in runes of a specific color, and each city takes its name from that color), is a place of cutthroat politics. The only time they actually agree is when an outside threat comes. Much to their annoyance, they have been able to do very little against Nine Oaks, beyond fighting back against his influence. They have more problems with the hostility of the woods than with the Rashka meddling, mainly because of the Meadows' trademark iron weapons.
A rustic land blurring the forests of Germany's Black Forest and the Machiavellian politics of Italy, with an iron core.
