Highlands

The **Highlands** are a highland territory with mountainous terrain region in southeastern Orsterra. It includes the town of Cobbleston—which is home to the warrior Olberic—Stonegard and Everhold.

The Highlands are bordered by the Coastlands to the north and the Sunlands to the west. It also known to house the Shrine of the Thunderblade and the secret Shrine of the Runeblade. The Kingdom of Altinia, ruled by the Wise King Solon, is found in the region.

## **History**

For over 200 years the region was controlled by the kingdom of Hornburg, but was brought to ruin after a civil war eight years prior to the start of the game. Following the civil war the remaining Lords fought for control of the region, with skirmishes between them continuing to this very day.

Since the Highlands are located in steep mountains, its main industries are the cultivation of vegetables, fruits, and dairy. With the advent of parchment paper the region become known for producing paper using its high-quality timber.
