Dilapidated Hillside Fortress

The silent, decayed ruins of this prehistoric site offer much to ponder.

How did the once prosperous Alliance of the Nine Kingdoms, a nation of human beings lacking in magical power and unversed in spellcasting, come to wield such territorial power? The answer is actually quite simple: they devoted themselves entirely to iron and sword, developing and systematizing a multitude of Sword Skills able to counter magic. Here lie the faded remnants of a warrior nation as forged in steel as its innumerable glistening blades.
