Alyan

In the forgotten ages Alilia slew Northerild in his home long before Alyan was a nation. For as long as dorii have been sentient a dark presence has loomed over the lands of Alyan. The dorii recognize the corruption the presence can have on the lesser races and have long stood guard over the forests. No other nations know the dormant secrets of Alyan but the fury of the vigilant dorii is known to all who try to enter the woods without their approval.
Lesser serii city states such as Kalcrest developed on the border of the Alyan forest under the protection of the dorii. As such, Alyan is a sprawling mixture of devout Alildorii, vigilant Brendorii, and eclectic serii of many varieties.
