Bay of Logres

**The Bay of Logres** is a county of Logria held directly by the High King. The county's primary port is the city of Logres itself, the bustling capital of the United Kingdoms and the seat of the High King.

## Culture and Society

The High King of Gramarye, as King of Logres and Duke of Logria, also serves as Earl of the Bay.

### **Religion**

In the Bay of Logres, as in the rest of Logres and indeed most of Gramarye, Heironeous is the most commonly worshiped deity among both the nobility and the commonfolk. That said, the town of Avon is a notable center of Pelorian worship in Gramarye, and in recent years the Church of Starry Wisdom has gained considerable influence among the commoners thanks in large to their numerous public works and welfare programs.

## Geography

The Bay of Logres consists, quite obviously, of the eponymous shoreline while inland it is mostly warm and sunny grassland plains.

### **Buccaneer's Bay**

A small and rocky island in the bay, roughly midway between Lionheart and Wickton, the island of **Buccaneer's Bay** is home to an eponymous and lawless town of pirates, thieves, and outlaws.

### **The Dragon's Spine**

Curving to the west, northwest, and north of Logres, the mountain range known as the **Dragon's Spine** forms a natural border between the bay and the Wildwood. West of Logres, the hills at the foot of the mountains are home to a handful of Hill Giant tribes.

### **Ghostwood**

**The Ghostwood** is a deep forest some ways west of Wickton. Wisp-stalked, the dark forest is also said to be haunted by the spirits of dead Rangers. The forest is nonetheless a regular destination for foresters despite the danger as it contains numerous herbs.

### **Lionheart**

On the southern end of the bay stands the walled city of **Lionheart**. A bright and sunny city of marble buildings and shaded parks, Lionheart is known for its mighty walls and for its brave and honest knights, paragons of honor. Indeed, it is generally believed in Lionheart that honor is the highest of all knightly virtues and the ideal to which *all* knights should aspire.

### **Logres**

The city of **Logres**, situated at the central shore of the bay, is the capital of the United Kingdoms of Gramarye and the seat of the High King.

### **Mistbane Lighthouse**

Atop a rocky islet in the center of the bay sits **Mistbane Lighthouse**.

### **Seaside Mountains**

East of Logres, the **Seaside Mountains** stand on the coastline of the bay. Streams and small rivers from the mountains serve to feed the nearby lake, and at the foot of the mountains can be found the town of Avon, a center of Pelorian, rather than Heironean, worship and home of a famous bardic college.

### **Valorkill Mountains**

A small mountain range west of Lionheart, the **Valorkill Mountains** are riddled with caves and caverns and a known abode of Orcs, Trolls, and even Dragons, while the peaks themselves are sometimes host to Harpies. A popular destination for knights and other would-be heroes, many jokingly question whether the name of the peaks refers to the valorous slaying of monsters, or the many adventurers who have met their end due to an excess of valor and a deficit of prowess.

### **Wickton**

A quaint roadside farming village nestled along the shore, roughly midway between Logres and Lionheart, **Wickton** has little to offer visitors besides food, shelter, and a change of horses.
