Aldanor

Aldanor was once a fairly properous kingdom, but it was ruined by the greed of its former king, Arwyn Harcourt. In 648 AR, Harcourt attempted to raise a fiendish army to help him build an empire across the Emerald Coast. In the process, he was killed and his plot went awry. This resulted in the kingdom being ravaged by demons until the king’s son and heir, Gareth Harcourt, called for help from the other kingdoms of the Emerald Coast, as it was obvious that left unchecked, the hordes would threaten more than just his kingdom. Ralynia refused to send aid, as it had suffered the most from Alwyn’s campaigns. Ilmara and Miradel, however, eventually sent forces into Aldanor, and Talîsmarr later joined them. Eventually, the combined forces of the four kingdoms were able to stem the tide and close the gateway. Aldanor, however, lay in ruins.

Today, the kingdom is a shell of its former self. King Gareth and most of his people live along the southern coast; the rest of Aldanor is either deserted or home to marauding bands of humanoids striking out from Gharakaag. The three countries that helped against Alwyn’s demons keep on eye on the country, prepared to intervene again if necessary – regardless of the wishes of Harcourt or his people.
