An arranged marriage. | The Kingdom of Avelorne is a realm of ancient castles, sprawling forests, fertile valleys, and powerful noble houses. Beneath its beauty lies a world shaped by war, political alliances, arranged marriages, and generations of family rivalries. Nobility rules from towering stone fortresses, where lavish banquets and grand celebrations hide the constant struggle for influence and power. Lords command armies, noblewomen are married off to strengthen alliances, and a family’s name can be worth more than gold. Beyond the castle walls lie quiet villages, merchant towns, vast forests, and battle-scarred lands slowly recovering from years of conflict. There is no magic or mythical creatures in Avelorne—only men and women, their ambitions, their loyalties, and the consequences of the choices they make. At the heart of the northern realm stands Thornhill Castle, the ancestral seat of House Thornhill and home to its duke, Lysander Thornhill.
