The Free State of Karth holds secrets few ever uncover, for most are distracted by the merciless sun, the clamour of bustling cities, and the endless dramas of its people. Yet those who venture beyond the city walls will discover landscapes that can both captivate and destroy in equal measure.

In the far north-east dwell the wealthiest of Mernia’s dynasties. Here too lies a centre of wisdom, home to both the most prestigious Guilds Academy and the revered Bardlocks Academy in all of Mernia. The Guild of Guilds, an explicit display of mastery in every art and craft, stands as a jewel of enlightenment atop the gentle hills of the lush northern lands.

Barden, resting along the hospitably warm eastern coast, may be less opulent than the Guild of Guilds, but it holds the honour of being the original heart of Mernia’s knowledge. Its name itself is a tribute to the wisdom first unlocked there. Only Marcia’s Ardulaem rivals the combined collections of ancient texts and artefacts held within these academies.
