Wahlminster

Wahlminster

There is a moderate fey presence where it borders the Verdant Veil. Few venture into the forests there, as anyone who delve too deep are rarely seen again. The few settlements that border the Veil are all in a precarious truce with their elven neighbors, and as they are not even contiguous with the rest of Wahlminster, they may in many cases be seen as independent city states.

The leadwards parts of Wahlminster, is the more traditionally bounded region. It was the historical home of the human survivors conquered by the emigrats and subsequent religious crusade from the Mistwreath.

Currently the region exports a limited amount of lumber, mined metals, and food. It also has some tourism and some production of goods of various types. Its biggest claim to fame, however, is the fishery industry. The hunting of aquatic megafauna migrating along the sunwards coast of Orn yields annual bounties of a large selection of resources. Meat, oil and bones being but a few.

The large inland lake holds ruins of the age before the Destruction of Orn, but they are all but completely submerged

Magic

For centuries, there has been rumors of rare individuals in and around Wahlminster who practice hidden arts. These have always been unsubstantiated, and deemed to be only xenophobia of a culture who has always been a bit separate from that of the rest of Mendaris, if not Orn entirely.

Academics and historians often say it is something from the inhabitants that lived there before the conquest from Mistwreath. An ember of magical talent that survived the fall of Old Orn. See Wahlminster heritage
