Luminara

WELCOME TO LUMINARA, TRAVELER.

I'm YOUR GUIDE, LYNDAN SILVERWOOD

Warm greetings, traveler, and welcome to the heart of the Faewood. I am Lyndan Silverwood, a humble student of Luminara's histories and lore, serving under the wisdom of Lord Elowen. Our city is a testament to the harmony between elven craft and the ancient magic of the forest. Here, silver-barked trees cradle our homes , glowing lanterns mimic the starlight , and the air itself hums with serene energy. It is my pleasure to guide you through these living halls and share the whispers of wisdom held within Luminara's light. Tread softly, listen closely, and let the Faewood's beauty reveal itself to you.

OUR HISTORY, WOVEN FROM LIGHT AND LEAF

Luminara is more than a city; it is the living heart of the Faewood, ancient beyond mortal reckoning. Our history is intertwined with the forest itself, our architecture seamlessly blended with nature, featuring structures grown from living wood. For millennia, Luminara has stood as a sanctuary of light , a center of elven lore , and a steadfast bastion of the Alliance of Light. We have weathered the echoes of ancient conflicts, like the Cinder Wars and the War of the Sundered Coast , holding firm to the principles of balance and wisdom under the guidance of leaders like the revered Lord Elowen. Most recently, our city served as the starting point for the young Companion, Scott, on his fateful quest to find the legendary Sword of Rogan, believed lost within our borders. Though the blade's path led into shadow, Luminara's light endures, a beacon of hope against the gathering darkness.
