Town of Pale

The town of Pale sits in the center of the West Udryn Foothills. It is at the very edge of the civilized world. Its inhabitants number some 2000 people. Most of Pale's citizens are traders, merchants and scholars.

Pale is a rather small and uninteresting town.

If you would stand at the highest point in Pale and look North you would see the hills of the Whispering Meadows and the Howling Peaks mountain range further north.

To the south you would see a huge swampland known as the Blackpool Marsh. Beyond that, if the weather permits, you would see far to the south yet another mountain range stretching west-east as far as you can see. The mountains are called Hellflower Mountains. This mountain range is named after the active volcano that sits in the middle of the mountain range.

To the west stretches a great forest called The Great Tangle or simply The Tangle. A part of these woods is called Hollow Woods. Beyond these woods is yet another mountain range called Westwall Mountains.

To the east the plains stretches further into the East Udryn Foothills. A few miles east of town is a giant scar in the earth running a good 15 miles north to south. Beyond the East Udryn Foothills lies yet another forest and beyond this forest lies the sea.

To the south-west is an inland sea or a big lake depending on how you see it.

West of Pale, rivers make their way from the Howling Peaks, through the great tangle down to the lake and the Blackpool Marsh. To the east, more rivers run from the Howling Peaks. Some end in the Blackpool Marsh and some stretch all the way to the sea in the east.
