Difference between revisions of "Caer Witrin"

Caer Witrin was rebuilt by [[Scarlatti|Lord Scarlatti]] and given as a gift to His affianced, [[Selene|Lady Selene]]. Shortly after the joyous opening of the town, Lady Selene fell ill, and it was discovered with Lady Mithraea's aide that loving one, even such as Lord Scarlatti, more than another was causing her travail. The engagement was then broken, but the town remains as a testament to the love of a God for a Goddess.

The town of Caer Witrin is located just off the [[Cyrenian Highway]], high in the snow-capped Southern Vashnars and beneath the mountain from which it takes its name. The snow that often comes with such staggering elevation cloaks the town in a veil of serene, natural beauty. However, nature takes not a second of break for aestheticism, and the pervasive cold is every bit as deadly as it would be elsewhere. The frigid winds that weave their way through the town are enough to kill a man should he be caught outside, and in the winter, the snow blocks off the pass to the town, sealing it off from all but the hardiest adventurers. At the northwest corner of town lies the temple of Scarlatti, the Great Bard, God of the Arts and Lord of the Dance, the very same that was originally located in the Southern Vashnars.
