Markal

A minor city of the Free Kingdoms, located in what is now the Fiach Wood on the NE edge of the land claimed by Wyrmhold. Mostly fallen to rubble. Partially explored by the Ruin Raiders while working for an archaeology expedition sponsored by Selan's Seekers before being attacked by rogue agents from Mar'osh under the direction of Diedre Mar'osh in 253 AC. Home to one of the pieces of the map for the Taurishen.

It was utterly destroyed during the Cataclysm War by a horde of orcs.

Area Map

Areas of interest:

1. Camp. This is where the archaeology expedition set up camp. Roughly 2-3 miles from the city ruins itself.
2. Old goblin ruins. An old mine, then taken over by goblins during the Cataclysm War and left to ruin.
3. Graveyard. Still mostly intact, especially the crypt.
4. Chapel to an unknown Old God, probably of Life or Fertility. Still almost entirely intact. Underground tunnels inhabited by Rebecca, a were-rat druid and her gigantic rat brood.
5. Keep. Mostly ruined, but some parts remain intact (or did as of 253 AC).
