Ashra
The Valley of Life
Ashra is one of the most fertile and diverse regions in the world. From the vines in Lans Yards to the trash town of Yren to the farmlands all around, Ashra will offer something unique for all who travel through. Fruits grow in abundance; rivers and lakes are teeming with fish; plenty of animals to hunt for fresh meat; good soil for the crops. Whatever man can wish for, the land of Ashra provides. The city used to be one great, beautiful garden… a long time ago. Nowadays, although still marvelously rich, Ashra is only a fragment of its former self, and dark shadows are gathering in the gorge between the green lands and Zenithar…
Your Friends
Jabir the Just – The self-declared leader of Ashra. He works on restoring the city to its former glory, and spares no expenses (or, when it comes to that, lives) to reach his goal. In his own way, he cares for Ashra and its people; lately, leading the city has been more of a challenge than he has ever expected it to be…
Priestess Turambi – The leader of the Inamas in Ashra. She helps the champions sent here from Ennahar to reach their goal and learn all they need to know.
Traxan – A calm man and perhaps the final Samatarras alive, Traxan is a friend of Priestess Zahida and knows the secrets of the region well. He can offer advice to help the champion find what they are searching for.
Your Enemies
Master Seed – The Southern Forest of Greyford has gone crazy and turned against the locals. The Master Seed, which is the heart of the forest has been corrupted by evil doers and will cause permanent damage if not stopped.
Arrathi Guard – The local guards have turned As’Arrath upside down. They are meant to protect the locals, but for some reason have turned against them and are causing more problems than offering help.
Notable places
Yren –
The result of refuse flowing downstream from Zenithar, Yren is a man-made village of everything that has gone unwanted. The people that live there are strange to say the least and the clans controlling it smell like their surroundings. But at the end of the day, what one person calls garbage, another calls a treasure. Beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder.
Zirian court –
Zirian Court rests in front of one of the holiest places in the Empire, the legendary pond containing the tears of Lady Ashra. It is said long ago, Lady Ashra was overcome by a sadness causing her to cry and from her tears the pond was born. A pond of holy tears, considered by current residents and visitors of Ashra to be a place of worship and hope. Zirian Court is the doorway to the tears of Ashra.
