Ambervale

Ambervale was established three centuries ago by a group of pacifist settlers seeking refuge from the Iron Wars. They transformed the rocky soil into the most productive breadbasket of the province through innovative irrigation techniques and communal labor. While the village has largely avoided major conflicts, it remains a vital stop for merchants traveling between the capital and the coast. Every building is constructed from sturdy timber and local fieldstone, reflecting the pragmatic nature of the residents.

A bustling village center defined by the smell of baking bread and the constant clatter of the watermill.
