Winteredge Kingdom
Introduction
A village is perched in the middle of a stunning landscape long ago. The homes are small huts made from skins and pelts line the floors to sleep in. You wander through the seemingly deserted village until a shadow falls over you. “Welcome to the Winteredge kingdom. Come inside and have some food and water.” A soft voice calls to you as a young girl appears and helps you to your feet, leading you to the biggest hut of them all and sitting down beside two regal-looking people. “Will you stay with us? And help us along our journey? Or do you wish to keep traveling?” This is the long-lost kingdom of Winteredge. The kingdom was first said to have bonded with the wildlife of the mountains.
Lore
Long long ago, around 20,00 years ago, villages were common through the plains and mountains that we all call home today. At this time, unknown to many around...there was a kingdom that was formed and brought peace to many around them. This village is by far the largest and most well-known. Their huts are made from animal skins and pelts are used to sleep on. This kingdom formed and with it rose a queen and king. The king was arranged to marry the queen and they both didn’t love each other right away until they did after time. After this time, the queen gave birth to three born (be it a prince or princess doesn’t matter). One princess left at a young age...deciding to go and try to survive on her own. Wolves tried to attack her...and she injured one but couldn’t bring herself to kill it. So she healed it and the fae wolf that was as black as night went with her and together they formed a pack and the legend of the girl that ran with wolves. She howls like them...moves like them, hunts like them. Her family all but almost forgot her...until the pack gets too close for comfort one day.
As time went on, more dangers emerged. Sabretoothed cats became more common to see - and the tension between these incredible felines and the canines that roamed the wild grew day by day. Eventually, the time will come when war is unavoidable. Sabres and Wolves will clash and the kingdom itself will have to decide whether they need to work alongside the fierce canines or risk their kingdom falling.
The rumors of the lost and wild princess grow as eerie howls sound through the night and blood runs crimson no matter the species. The winter is coming and the kingdom will either fall, or it will survive. The true test will be if the kingdom can work alongside the wolves or if they will try to survive on their own. Sabres are more common than anything else and the pack of wolves has dwindled to a small number - almost leaving it at 10 wolves total.
