Tenebrae

Description and History
Tenebrae, the city of eternal twilight, is the only known city remaining in Pagan after the great war, situated on the island of Morgaelin. To the west lies the Fishermen's Reef where people of said occupation live, to the east the Cemetery and the centre of the Necromancers and to the north the Herdsman's Valley with its Torax farms.

The city was built by the Zealans long before the war, and was the only city to survive it, becoming the center of life for many. Since then, the Tempest rules from there. In the early times after the war, Lithos once tried to destroy the city with his army of dead, but the Bonecrusher stopped his assault. Thick walls surround the city and divide it in three parts, silent witness of its warful past.

The central district is dominated by the City Palace, where the ruling Tempest lives. It is also the only building in the district, apart from the guard posts. However, access is not resticted and it would be difficult to do so, since it connects the other two parts of the city.

In the western district live the poor and craftsmen of Tenebrae. The river also flows through it. There, the Shattered Skull Tavern, blacksmith and arena are found among the houses of the common folk of the city. The district looks run-down.

In the eastern district live the wealthy and important people such as the the Tempest's majordomo. In the eastern districts are also found the gem shop, the library, the training hall and the city sorcerer.

In these days, Mordea ruled with an iron fist, turning Tenebrae essentially into a huge prison for all its inhabitants. Her terror regime executed anyone who dared to speak against her and the people lived in fear, becoming defensive. With her death, normality returned.
