Moonshire - Welcome Letter

The year of our lords is 360 AD,

Dear Traveller,

What can be said about the Lands of Moonshire? It are wonderful and mysterious lands which has many unexplored and rough areas. Never visited there? Then by all means you should! You will be surprised of how organised our lands are, how beautiful and authentic our cities and towns are and how well the people manage for a living. Our capital of Silverdale, which is situated at the east in the lands, has got many clean and neatly tiled streets as well as many shops and large buildings.

It is a comfortable place to live at with, on average, a good climate. Moonshire has a good economy. It has agriculture, fishing as well as mining. A variety of nice trading supplies come from Moonshire such as cotton, wool, furniture, delicate food and fragrances.

Next to this our city in the north west, Silver Dale’s port with it’s lighthouses and docks around the Trader’s Inn has ample opportunity to buy goods, find traders, education and entertainment.

Also armament and weaponry is produced to the south of Moonshire at the city of Stone’s Way and transferred north to the Silverdale Port, to help in our defenses against pirates. Blacksmith guilds and mills run there heavily.

When the weather is good, people go for the beaches. Derby has the best ones that may even match the expensive ones on the Southern Jungle in quality and beauty!

The lands have plenty of forests, even with roads through them. There are very safe pathways, but people do not prefer to cross the forest all the time in the night as outlaws also hide in there. But it’s nothing that is not under control. Going through the river by boat costs a little, but it’s fast and it’s worth it.

The King’s name is called King Archibald. He is very much a political as a business man, often seeming in a hurry. Few people see him often, but he puts the council there to good work.

Perhaps you become so curious that you want to visit us during your trip, then, by all means, you are of course very welcome!
