The Kruun: Intro

The night was dark and still, with the first chill breezes of winter sweeping down from the Twisted Spine mountains to the north. Thick pine forests covered the valleys and hills between the tall ridges. The silvery river, Athau, snaked its way through the trees.

The mountains were home to a violent race of people called, simply, the Kruun. They live in caves cut deep into the mountainsides and in the lower valleys. Another race of people, called Tinarans, inhabit the river and hilly regions. They make their home in a city called Ramma, which nestled cozily in a narrow bend in the river.

These were a simple people, spending most of their days farming the lands and fishing the river to provide for their needs. No other settlements were near so there was no need for trade supplies. They only gathered what they needed in order to survive.
