It's hard for her to understand why people treat boys and girls differently. She speaks in a cheery, youthful manner, with her often not understanding the social dynamics of the mercenaries.

2. #2Generic world infoconstantselective
   The story is set on the planet of Gaia, a medieval world filled with anthropomorphic animals and humans. The continent of Lemuria is a solitary island.

   On the southwest coast of Lemuria is the kingdom of Plavonia. Plavonia's capital, Zlolograd is on he southwest coast. North of Zlolograd is Rudnikovo, a mining town at the edge of the Windswept mountain range. Northeast of Zlolograd is Polevo, a city. The road between Zlolograd and Polevo goes through the Royal Woods. Northeast of Polevo is the "Border of Steel and Stone", more commonly just called "The Border". It is a massive wall of fortifications, covering the gap between the Windswept Mountains and the Jagged Mountains leading north.

   The Windswept Mountains form a natural barrier to the north of Plavonia, being an almost horizontal line of mountains.

   To the east of Plavonia is Montefiori, an independent city state. It sits on a river streaming from the Jagged Mountains.

   The Jagged Mountains form a natural, vertical barrier to the east of Montefiori. On the southwest edge of Lemuria are three medium-sized islands, called the Flower Isles.

   Beyond the border are the Free Territories. Wild lands comprised of human populations and others.

   Keys: Zlolograd

   Zlolograd is the grand capital city of Plavonia.

   Zlolograd Castle lies on the northwest side of town, and the King resides there. It is a coastal town, with a port in the bay. Trade flows through the port, eastwards towards Montefiori. Land-based caravans head northeast, up through Polevo. A road northeast leads to Polevo through the Royal Woods.

   The people on the outside of the city fish and farm, providing plenty of food for the citizens.

   The city is divided up in three quarters: the lower, middle and upper quarter. The lower quarter is outside the walls, and is where most of the city's working population live. Farmsteads and small houses litter the lower quarter. The middle quarter is where trade occurs, and craftsmen have their workshops. A great road leads into the city through the walls, up to the central square and further up to the upper quarter gate. The main church of the city is situated in the middle quarter. The upper quarter is the smallest quarter, having another wall around it. Inside is the palace and a few other buildings.

   <the_border> The Border of Steel and Stone, or more commonly know as "The Border" is a massive line of walls connecting the east end of the Windswept Mountains and the north end of the Jagged Mountains, forming a complete border between the two. The only way around the Border is to either brave the dangerous passes of the mountain ranges, or a patch of land on the southern end of the Jagged Mountains. The Border is made out of black stone, making it look menacing. The only gate is in the middle, and the soldiers of Plavonia keep guard.

   A road southwest leads to Polevo. The landscape around the Border is mountainous, being situated in a mountain valley. Where it's not hilly or mountainous, the landscape is flat with little vegetation. </the_border>

   Keys: Royal Woods

   <royal_woods> The Royal Woods is a large forest between Zlolograd and Polevo. It's a deciduous forest, with mostly trees like elm and oak. Beyond the dirt road going through it, it is mostly untamed. A few hermits may live in the woods, having built their own cabins. Common wildlife are rabbits, foxes and boars. The Royal Woods are called that due to them being hunting grounds of the Plavonian royal family. Poachers are severely punished, but Royal investment also leaves the forest very well-kept.

    <emerald_scepter> The War for the Emerald Scepter was a war between Plavonia and Montefiori in 758. It began with the capture of a Montefioran caravan being detained at the Border of Steel and Stone, the titular Emerald Scepter being one of the items in the caravan. The valuables were confiscated and brought to Zlolograd, but the Montefioran government wanted them back. And so they hired groups of mercenaries to take back what's theirs, by force. The fighting took place mostly in the plains and forests of eastern Plavonia. The war ended inconclusively, with the mercenaries being driven beyond the river separating Polevo and Montefiori. A treaty was signed, and the Emerald Scepter has stayed in Plavonia's possesion.

Plavonia also controls the Border of Steel and Stone, one of the two safe paths through the mountain ranges surrounding southwest Lemuria. Plavonia's flag is a yellow sun on a blue background. Primarily inhabited by anthropomorphic wolves. It's a monarchy, ruled by a royal family. The south of Plavonia is temperate, and the further north you go towards the mountains the colder it gets. In the south leafy trees are common, while in the north pines reign. The people farm crops like wheat and potatoes, and fish from the rivers and ocean. Mines in the northern mountains provide the people with iron for tools and weaponry. [Style: Medieval Slavic, log buildings and slavic names.]

The people of the town are hardy, those not working in the mines making their living as lumberjacks and hunters. They have a natural suspicion of outsiders, as mountain men tend to come down to the town to cause trouble. To the south is a great pine forest, and a road leads south through that to Polevo. In Rudnikovo architecture, basements are common due to their ability to preserve heat in the chilly climate. And there's a fireplace in every home, of course.

    It is a center of learning and innovation. The Fuego Academy being known all across Lemuria as a great store of knowledge, it's library comprising of hundreds of books. The title of "City of a Million Books" comes from this academy. There's probably more books than people in the city!

    Their wealth comes both from trade but also the riches of the nearby Jagged Mountains, various gems being extracted from a mine upstream from the city. Their small population combined with their wealth means they usually rely on mercenaries for military conflicts.

Besides learning to read in Montefiori, she also learned of and found appreciation of the usage of rapiers, something she now wields. A rapier and a buckler is truly the superior way to fight, whether it be man or beast.

    The experience of the war left her somewhat disillusioned with the mercenary life, and she quit shortly afterwards. She would rather fight beasts than people. She's seen enough people die. Though female in a medieval world, her experiences with the rougher parts of the world have left her used to the company of men.

    Living on the road is rough, but she enjoys it. Freedom is something she can't live without. Freedom has taken a different meaning now that she's tied up in the administrative duties of ruling a guild. It's a rare thing for her now to go on adventures.

    She has an air of confidence about her, moving with grace and refinement.

    She has a decent amount of money from her various adventures.

    The money earned from her past adventures and the current incomes from the Exploratory Commission let her live very well-off. Her house in Polevo is large, filled with various items from her adventures. It is a little quiet though, only her living there.

    She used to have an adventuring compatriot, a man, who was her true equal. On that same ill-fated adventure where she lost her eye, she lost him too. All before she could confess her love to him. His grave can be found in the Polevo graveyard, and she visits every year. His memory lives on, within her. Wine The love of her life The Exploratory Comission }}

    <frigid_snowfields> The Frigid Snowfields are a large area in Northern Lemuria, taking up most of the western part. In the middle is Frozen Lake. Trappers come here to hunt the wildlife, and loggers come to cut the pine trees. The most common wildlife are elk, wolves and rabbits.

37. #37Flower Islesselective

    Keys: flower isles, acorn of life

    <flower_isles> The Flower Isles are three sparsely populated islands southwest of the Kingdom of Plavonia. They are a scene of idyllic beauty, dense meadows covering most of the islands with only a few trees and cottages scattered around. There is little wildlife, except bugs and birds. The small population there are mostly fishermen, using boats to fish offshore to sustain themselves. A few farms are dotted around the islands, beekeeping is common here. Adventure? On the isles? Not really a thing, unless you count helping farmers with their work or collecting acorns adventures. </flower_isles>
