The Argent Vales is the ancestral heartland of the Asher people. Stately cathedral cities and sprawling necropolises dominate the landscape, carved from the very marble they stand upon. The atmosphere is one of stillness and ceremony. The statuesque residents move with a haunting elegance among spires that pierce the morning mist. This is a land where the dead are honored more than the living and every stone wall tells a century of history.
