Morhan

Morhan, also known as the City of the Fallen Star, is the capital of Wolfsbrunn. It lies in the region of Sternes in the central south of Wolfsbrunn. The city itself is located in the bend of the river Fortuna, which connected Morhan to the Cobalt Divide in the west.  

Seat of Power

Morhan has had some powerstruggles with Rornach in the past over the rulership over the kingdom. The city of Rornach had pled fealty to Morhan, but the alliance between the two cities has always remained very fragile. One of the main reasons for this was the profound differences in values and culture between the two cities.

City of the Fallen Star

Morhan was the second city to have been founded by Humans in Wolfsbrunn. The legend goes that a star was seen falling from the sky by the citizens of the first city of Wolfsbrunn: Altenport . The people went seeking for where it landed and found a large crater that glittered and sparkled with precious metals and gems. In the middle laid a large polished spherical diamond. The people saw this as a sign from the gods that this place was blessed with good fortune and wealth and decided to settle in this location. The diamond was called the Mor by the people that found it, and so the city was to be called Morhan, ‘Home of the Mor’. The tales of the Mor are legendary in itself, supposedly it has some great power in the defense of the city. However, these days many people even doubt if the Mor ever existed. The Mor has not been seen by the citizens of Wolfsbrunn for countless centuries and the tales of where it might be are vague or incomplete at best.

Defined by the Divine

Faith holds a place of deep reverence within Morhan, centered around the Sanctuary of the Divine Trinity. It serves as a place of worship and as a symbol of the city's devotion to order and higher purpose. Beyond the grandeur of the Sanctuary, smaller shrines and temples can be found throughout Morhan. Some are public spaces of worship, open to all who seek the guidance of the Three. Others are private, tended by small groups who honor a single aspect in quiet devotion. Whether grand or humble, these places of worship are seamlessly woven into the life of the city.

Gifts of Gods

The streets of Morhan are paved with polished stone, and the buildings gleam with artistry and care, their facades adorned with intricate carvings and rare materials. Wealth is not merely common within Morhan, it is the very fabric of the city’s identity. A vast amount of its citizens are merchants of rare and precious goods, master artisans, and nobles of distinguished bloodlines but there are also a large number of scholars and priests within the city walls at all times. Sophistication shapes daily life, and those who lack polish or pedigree find little welcome beyond the city's outer quarters. A quiet pride runs through the people of Morhan, not only in their education and wealth but also in their devotion. Public displays of piety are common, and success is often seen as a blessing granted by the favor of the Divine Trinity. Religious observance is woven into daily routines, from morning offerings at household shrines to grand processions through the streets on high holy days. Strangers who seek to settle within its walls must bring not only wealth or talent, but also a respect for the traditions and faith that define the city’s spirit.
