The Kingdom of Kelnor
Marin looked upon the looming mountains before him and back upon the coastal forests behind him. The dwarves and gnomes that claimed these mountains and their surrounding lands as their own were a good, honest people for the most part if not a bit eccentric. Still compared to the coastal towns and villages of sea and land elves to their southern border, and the human city-states with their Orcish slaves to the east, they held some of the best trade routes a half-elf merchant and his halfling traveling companion could want.
