Soothsayer's Regalia

Long ago, deep in the Selica forest, the druids of old gutted human sacrifices with ceremonial blades. They would gather around the still living sacrifice and study the various convulsio screams. They would observe the movement of the dying body and the tone of the wailing in order to tell the future, thus creating the art of soothsaying.

Wyvern

This Article will contain **Spoilers**

Up to Volume 4 of the Light Novel series

**Wyrens** (, ***Wyrens***?) are winged demi-dragons capable of flight, although it was the subject of academic debate whether to categorize them as demi-dragons or beasts. Although wyverns breathed fire like dragons, they had no front legs and were smaller, weaker and more simpleminded.

They are still a significant threat. Hunting a wyvern requires a reasonably sized, trained team to attack its nest. It is extremely difficult to secure a vicoty on flat land against a wyrvern when it had absolute control over the sky.

It was also said that some rare wyvern could speak the language of dragons. These wyverns served the dragon and lizardmen exalted them. As for wyvern in the Beast wood's mountains, it was one like a beast: it had low intelligence and was unable to talk.

Demons are known to deface temples of the virtuous gods and to perform unholy rituals involving human sacrifice. There are many types of demon that are usually classified into four ranks: Solider, Commander, General, and King. In William's experience, the Soldiers are
all savage warriors with no fear of death, and the higher-ranked demons are just the
same with the addition that many of them are also users of Words and Benediction.

In a city of the dead, long since ruined and far from human civilization, lives a single human child. His name is Will, and he’s being raised by three undead: the hearty skeletal warrior, Blood; the graceful mummified priestess, Mary; and the crotchety spectral sorcerer, Gus. The three pour love into the boy, and teach him all they know.

But one day, Will starts to wonder: “Who am I?” Will must unravel the mysteries of this faraway dead man’s land, and unearth the secret pasts of the undead. He must learn the love and mercy of the good gods, and the bigotry and madness of the bad. And when he knows it all, the boy will take his first step on the path to becoming a Paladin.

*“I promised you. It’s gonna take a while, but I’ll tell you everything. This is the story of the deaths of many heroes. It’s the story of how we died, and it’s the reason you grew up here.”*

They won the Best Television Soundtrack award for their work on *Requiem* at the 2019 Ivor Novello Awards.
Arid Climate

**Arid Climate** is a continent to the east of Southmark and is notably a dangerous place. It is a land of nomads, sprawling steeps and endless wastes. The climate is cool caused by dry winds blown across the land.

## Landscape

The land is scattered with plateaus controlled by goblins and there are a species of Centuars located somewhere in the continent.
Torch Port

The city of **Torch Port** was built on the ruins of a Union Age city at the big river that runs from the City of the Dead to Whitesails. William strolled by here shortly before meeting Meneldor for the first time. On Tonio's suggestion and with Ethelbald's support, he invested in redeveloping the city, and Torch Port is now his home and base of operations as well as the largest settlement in Beast Woods.

A large number of dwarves inhabits Torch Port. Most are refugees of the Iron Country or their descendants that have returned to Southmark to be close to their old home. Some just wanting to die while gazing one last time at the Rust Mountains, and some in hopes of retaking it. William invested most of his funds into setting up their businesses, considering how skilled craftsmen are hard to come by this far into Beast Woods. They live in their own neighborhood, called Dwarftown.

While William is the liege lord of Torch Port, most administrative work is actually done by others. Anna handles the day-to-day business of running the city as well as religious services, Reystov is in charge of matters military, Tonio is keeping track of commerce, and Agnarr is the representative of the dwarves.

The first industry to get going was the lumber business. Trees are cut in Beast Woods, tied into rafts, and send downstream to Whitesails for construction lumber and firewood. With the arrival of the dwarves, the economy quickly diversified and now includes smithing, leather tanning, woodworking, pottery, weaving, and carpentry, among others. The trade with Whitesails keeps the river port busy, and loading and unloading the ships provides ample employment even for the unskilled. But even so, the constant influx of people could eventually lead to high unemployment, and therefore crime, so William is considering to fund large public works projects in order to provide enough work for everyone should it come to that. Many shops have opened that sell the local as well as goods from Whitesails to the large and ever-increasing population. Food is provided in eateries, inns, and many adventurer taverns: It is here where adventurers gather to prepare for ruin exploration, beast hunting, or to pick up posted work offers, mostly to hunt down demons or beasts that threaten the many small villages of Beast Woods. And so the security situation of the region has greatly improved.

## Locations

* Antonio's trading company

Southmark

**Southmark** is a southern continent and the main setting of The Faraway Paladin. Hit hardest by the Great Collapse 200 years ago, very few people remain. But recently a colonization effort by the Fertile Kingdom brought about the beginnings of recovery. The climate is rather warm and only a thin cover of snow falls in winter, if even that.

To the north, across the Middle-sea, lies the continent of Grassland, where the Fertile Kingdom is situated and most new settlers coming to Southmark hail from. To the east lies the continent of Arid Climate. To the south-east, lies the region of Ogre's Wasteland.

## Landscape

The port city of Whitesails, now the continent's largest settlement, is situated at a bay in the northern coast. It was founded by the Fertile Kingdom and is ruled by the King's brother, Duke Ethelbald. An Academy of Sages can be found in a forest near Whitesails. Farther inland begins Beast Woods, an undeveloped region full of dangerous beasts and even demons but also of undiscovered ruins from the Union Age that promise riches to those who dare explore them. Through his various efforts to help the people that are trying to settle in this dangerous region, William happened to become the feudal lord of the whole area. In the middle of Beast Woods, on the ruins of an old city, he founded the settlement of Torch Port. It quickly became the politcal, economic, and military center of the region. Further south beyond Beast Woods, a big river originates at the lake by the City of the Dead, where the High King remains sealed and William grew up. It runs through Torch Port to meet the sea at Whitesails. This river is the main mode of transport and commerce. To the West of Beast Woods is a big mountain range, the Rust Mountains, formerly known as Iron Mountains. Under these mountains, the dwarven Iron Country can be found. Taken by Valacirca during the Great Collapse, it has recently been reconquered but remains sealed and unsettled for the moment. Beyond the mountains lies the forest of Lothdor, an old elven country. Though the elves managed to survive, having been completely isolated from the world and suffering from Valacirca's miasma for 200 years greatly diminished them.

Elves

**Elves** are the minions of Rhea Silvia, the god of water and greenery. They are a race of beautiful and long lived people descending from the greater fae that had been created long ago by the Progenitor. Their most notable features are their beauty, long hair and pointed ears. Since the elves have strong connections with nature they have a strong image as vegetarians, most elves hunted like normal and ate meat and fish, it is the duty of the elves as rulers of the forest to hunt and fish to preserve the nature while elves who don't eat meat or fish are elves that underwent special training and became strongly fae in nature. Elves live longer than any other known race, they can live easily for hundreds of years, sometimes thousands depending on the strength of their blood. Elves are noble, their culture strongly believes to the point it's common sense that the weak are to be protected while the strong are the first to make sacrifices.

Rhea Silvia took the fae's admirations for humans into account and made it so that the two races would be compatible, it was said that this is the reason that humans and elves can produce mix-blood children, their elven side even comes from their grandparents. These elves are called half-elves, they are beautiful, skilled and lived long lives, yet not to the same extent to as elves. Their position in human and elven society is harsh, it hard for them to gain equal treatment among humans or elves, they were too exceptional to be humans and too quickly maturing to be an elf, it is hard to be treated as equals in either society.
Words of Creation

The **Words of Creation** (創造のことば, *Sōzō no Kotoba*?) are one branch of magic (the others being Benediction and Elementalism) that uses certain words and signs which hold significant power. They feature prominently in the world's creation myth and the world itself and everything within is said to be made out of these words. Their use requires knowledge of the words and signs (many of which have been lost to people since the Age of Myth) as well as utmost precision in their pronunciation (or inscription, respectively), as inaccuracy may lead to them miss- or even backfiring. Mages often tell warning tales of careless use of the Words. The languages of humans, elves, and fae are said to be corrupted versions of the Words of Creation, invented by Enlight to make communication possible without accidentally casting magic. Likewise, depictions of the signs are always slightly corrupted in order not to activate them while maintaining readability.

Grassland

**Grassland** is a continent to the north of Southmark and politically fractured. The south is dominated by temperate plains and the north by frozen tundras, separated by a natrual barrier, an almost impassable and massive mountain belt, the Stairway to Heaven, that runs from east to west.

## Landscape

The southwestern part of Grassland was unified by the previous king of the Fertile Kingdom, Egbert II. To the west of Fertile lie the Allied Kingdoms, a federation of small- and medium-sized kingdoms, while to the east there is a region known as the Hundred Warring Kingdoms. A conflict zone where small states run by warlords, families, or clans fight for power, rise, and quickly fall to ruin again. The region suffers from poverty, politcial instability, and there is a lot of wasteland. North of it is a vast valley surrounded by mountains covered in fog, the Misty Valley, home to the largest dwarven country in Grassland, the Vale, which is itself in political turmoil at the moment. Further north still lies the Great Forest of Erin, birthplace of Meneldor and the largest elven country. One of the mountain ranges that form the Stairway to Heaven, the Ice Mountains, is not as steep, with rather gentle slopes and in some places basins of comparatively mild climate where people can live, one of which is Volt's Stove, where Reystov is from. But it also is the only place where the natural barrier that divides Grassland in two can be crossed, so this is where the giants and goblins of the far north sometimes attempt their invasions, and smaller raids are common.

Creator

Depiction of the Creator

* Profile
* Media

The **Creator** (始祖神, *Shisoshin*?), also known as the Progenitor, is the First God who appeared from a place known to no one. He is the creator of the world and the other gods.

## Appearance

His true appearance is unknown. The legends told by Augustus depicts him as a humanoid figure with long hair and pointed ears featuring animal-like features.

## Background

He was the First God who appeared from a place known to no one, in the chaos, he created the earth and the skies, which caused the heavens and the earth to part.

His true name was never passed down, so he's simply called the Creator of the Progenitor.

After this he spoke of the Words and engraved the Signs, he made the sun and moon, split day from night and gathered water to separate the oceans and the earth.

Fire was born, wind was born and the trees were born. The gods were born, the people were born and the animals were born.

When he had made the world and was satisfied of its beauty, he said to himself, without thinking, that it was 'good.' This created the concept of 'good' and 'evil' and so the malice and evil gods were born.

The evil gods that were born into the world killed the Creator and and so life and death were born and after that began the age of many gods and many legends.

## Abilities

He has the ability to create and manipulate mass and attributes. His connection towards the Words of Creation is very strong due to him simply uttering a word can create and birth new concepts into the world. He does not have the ability to take back his words and revert concepts.

## Trivia

* He shares a similar origin as the Greek Goddess, Gaia.
* In the official English translation of the light novel series, the creator is described with male pronouns. We don't know whether the original/untranslated version of the series has mentioned or implied the gender, there might be a possibility the creator's gender was never actually mentioned.
Episode 2

Title

**The Wandering Sage** (彷徨の賢者, *Hōkō no Kenja*?) is the second episode of the *The Faraway Paladin* anime series.

Five years have passed since Will learned Mary's secret, and he is now 13. His undead parents' lessons grow ever more difficult, but Will manages to stick to it. One day, Blood gives him an assignment requiring him to escape from the ruins in the city. Will desperately tries to fight his way out, but an odd sensation of malice stops him. It turns out that malice was coming from an unexpected source.

## Trivia

* The anime skipped over some important bits of information about Gus' attempt to kill William. He was trying to make the death look like it was from natural causes, so Blood and Mary would not discover the truth. He also wanted to give William a chance of survival since he did not hold any personal grudge towards him and would accept death if he was bested him.
