Midlands

"The Midlands are essentially 70% castle, 20% alcohol and 10% town."- Motto of the Midlands
The Midlands are a Daelyrian region and cultural area in the province of Duskyon. It is led by Alpha Kaerfels.
It is home to many castles such as Frostarch, its capital, or Vederya (formerly Duskfang). The centrally positioned terrain of the Midlands consists of mountains and highlands encroashed by hilly woodlands, suited for castles, hence the motto. The surrounding territory varies from Taigas over shires to swamps. A significant landmark is Shamrock tavern, officially known as Two Leaf Shamrock, the greatest, biggest and most visited tavern in Daelyria and the whole north.
The Midlands as a distinctive culture were established in July 2021, when bartender Sky Rox, Spoken Thorne (now Kaerfels) and Alpha (now Kaerfels), formed a geographical union. The region became a Lordship under Alpha Kaerfels, with him later assuming both the positon of Lord of the Midlands and Archon of Duskyon, making the midlands the de facto capital region of the province. 
The region is known for its unique culture and strong identity. Regional symbols such as the Duskyon Eagle or the famous Hvaekar Wine, and of course all the castles and taversns, are known throughout Daelyria. The Midlands are considered the heart of duskyon, and some may even call it the heart of daelyrian mainland culture. It also features its own style of music, bard songs and even dancing. The region, and specifically the capital, Frostarch, has become one of the main tourist spots in all of Daelyria.
