The First region in Durance that new characters will explore is the region of Carnalon. This region is planned to serve players from level 1 to level 10. Carnalon’s weather and biome are closest to the northeast of the United States with heardy forests, valleys and mountains, and you will find areas look and act different based on four separate seasons.
The region’s government was centered around the fortress of Caer Carnalon but since the Night of Fire that now lies in ruins. The populous, shops, and gossip can be found in the village of Kilkaen. Kilkaen survived the Night of Fire but it bears its own wounds; namely the fact that its main source of food and commerce, its corn fields, have been overrun by vermin. To the east of Kilkaen are the Bouldershield Docks where heavy merchantmen and galleons from the empires to the east used to offload goods. To the west is the Traig forest which offers some wild game, and tales of bandits. No doubt there are other hidden places to explore and learn more about the history, and fate of this storied land.
Note: As of the end of january 2019 I have completed Kilkaen and the cornfields. That area is the first quest, and the village has all of the things new adventurers will need. Making every outside room with four different descriptions based on seasons, and every inside room different based on day and night takes a lot longer than I’m used to but I think that it adds something so I’m going to keep it up for as long as I’m sane. Leave a comment if there are any suggestions for areas, or what you think a quest type at the docks could be.
