Remonia

Description

Remonia is of the 'Blue Lands' (also Grathelle and Valeeme) and the most powerful of them. There are vast areas of dense fern forests and damp rolling moss plains, some of which are inaccessible and as yet unexplored, travel is difficult and slow. It is isolated from its northern neighbours by the mountains of Edrad-Mure and Worm Fens to the east, making contact with Valeeme difficult though not impossible. Remonia is self sufficient and tends to keep itself to itself, suspicious and intolerant of strangers. Its biggest problem is keeping its southern borders safe from the outlaws of Brigandland.
