Vandor is a broad temperate river valley that serves as Vaelthaum's political and administrative heart. Its fertile banks support dense farming communities, busy market towns, fortified crossings, and roads filled with envoys, pilgrims, merchants, and adventurers. Magic is common and practical, flowing through invisible leylines that power institutions, workshops, and public works. At the region's center, three rulers share one palace while each district secretly operates through a different magical network.
