The heart of the old empire
This is a map of the region known as Cisallia, it was the seat of the old empire and one of the few places left on the continent where mankind was not entirely forced back into a tribal existence. Although the former capital of the empire is now for the most part a mouldering ruin, there yet remains some imperial city states with the strength and wealth to resist the dark tide of evil that constantly threatens mankind.
One of these is the old imperial port of Ostwin, situation on the interior coast of a peninsula separating the vast Middle sea to the south and the Sea of Armagh to the north, Ostwin was one of the chief trading cities of the old empire and yet maintains a strong merchant fleet. Unfortunately the city is beset on all sides by hostile orcish tribes in the mountains to the northwest, rival city states to the south, and the constant threat of seaborne raiders. Yet out of this adversity grows a thriving community led by the vigorous and charismatic Lord Mayor Oraka. Some say that the young Lord Mayor has the greatness of the ancient imperial line in him and it is whispered that he himself feels the call of destiny.
