Aurea Reach

**General Description**

A small town on the outskirts of the Hima plains in Ozaria, it is a very peaceful town that is known mostly for its abundance of farm goods. They have ongoing trade locations with both the capitol and a village of lizardmen in the swamps to the southwest. Recently monster attacks have become more frequent and people in the town are beginning to become anxious. This is caused mainly by the destruction of the Voiceless Maze, a massive dungeon that manifested nearby the town, many monsters used to dwell within, but now that the maze has crumbled they have moved out into the fields surrounding the town. There are very few warriors in the town, with only three royal knights and two small guilds, if the town were attacked with enough force they may not be able to stop it. The two guilds that have homes in Aurea Reach are Silver Moth and SAVIOR. Both are fairly new guilds, with all the members being relatively young, they were mostly formed from previous friendships. Silver Moth has significant experience from their assistance in the raid on the voiceless maze, but SAVIOR hasn’t really gone out into the field much. The two guilds have a lot of competition between each other, mainly stemming from their guildmaster’s years-old rivalry. Reed Shumath and Mai Sy'eth, the guildmaster's of each guild, are always trying to outdo one another, leading to them fighting over even the simplest of quests.
