The Land of Paeta and its Peoples

interactive map

Paeta is a land of rich history. Most lands are settled by humans of various ethnicities, with the exception of the Elven homeland and the Dwarven realms deep within the mountains. However, in the harsh climes of the Kaskev Mountains, which divide the continent, dwell hordes of aggressive and belligerent orcs, scheming hobgoblins and their hosts of loyal and disciplined soldiers, and clans of industrious goblins that continue to survive.

Wars of recent history have been internal to each of the races. Human nobles fight amongst themselves. Whether the Eklendans skirmish on the border with Gershans or Berkmar loses swaths of territory to Markia, most have never seen an orc or a goblin. Some even believe they are only in stories to scare children.

War in the West!

A Long Journey Begins…

The Witches of Serna: Book I

The story begins in Serna, a thriving vassal town of Yvel, a city ruled by Prince Gerald. Yvel is one of the thirteen city-states in the Gershan Lands on the western side of the Kaskev Mountains. You will join Holbrin and his fellow elves as they are passing through Serna and hosted by the local gentry, Koval and Mariss Covendran.

Book 1 will introduce you to a growing cast of heroes on both sides of a conflict as you see the towns of Serna and Borly, the city of Yvel, or the harsh walls of Rykooth Castle, stronghold of Oygariyet the Great and his alliance of hobgoblins, goblins, and orcs, nestled deep in the unforgiving heights of the Kaskevs.
