Long ago, long before anyone of this world was born there was(and still is) another world. It goes by many names, but they all mean the same thing. Its real name means Gate, but none on that world know that. Rather they know the world by contenents. Khazdhul, meaning gate, is where the most beings live. It is home to the two living gods, the Wolf God Ulfr Valdyr and the Fox God Kitsune Vixen. As well as two gods that stayed in their heavenly places, the hunter god lord Leonidas Skadi Diana(yes that is one name) and the warrior god king of battle Sigmud.
Of the lands of Khazdhul there is Kislev, land of the wolven peoples. However some of the fox people will travel over the mountain for the tounement the two oldest beast gods hold every ten years. It is comparable to this worlds olimpics, except its more like those that the greeks held thousands of years ago. Humans are also often found here, seeing as the capital is found in Dark Wulf woods, a massive forest that is the birth place of the bi-pedal wolves. On the western boarder is the Moon Light sea... on the eastern boarder is an arm of The Guardian Mountains.
On the other side of this arm is Sumihon, home of the Fox beings. Though their queen is not as old as her wolf brother and their empire not as large, they are masters of defence. The nature of the terrain is a perfect defending postion. On their west is the arm of the Guardian Mts that only the wolves dare cross, on their east is the same mountain range that is impassable, for good cause. In the small entrace they call a gate is "The Foxes Shield" a moutain range that makes it so there is only two ways in and out... one on either side of where it breaks up into foot hills before the Guardian mts begain again.
To the south is The Empire, the largest human nation in this world. Nothing much here is important, but their boarders stop well before the Forests of Alata. A land area that is known for the famous Alatians, but I will get to that later. There is however an area that the Empire does not controll, its a place known as the Gates of Khazdhul... I will get to it later. On the east and west are the mountain ranges known as The Walls, and none have ever crossed them.
To the east of the The Empire, across The Walls, is Hluta. The home of the Hunter God. The place is larger than any other empire in the land and is home to the Elven kin. Dark or Light, wood or high, it doesn't matter to them. It is also home to the mythical races of this world(earth).
In the middle of all of these is a land that none claim because of what the gods declared long ago. These are the Free Kingdoms, and in the middle is a large mountain that somehow lost the peak. And straight down to sea level is nothing, but everything around it is mountain, straight up and down. There is a small pass to the middle, only one though, and this is the free kingdoms fall back plan.
The Gates of Khazdhul, however is the only base of that the alliance of the four main gods controlls as one. Although it is a base I count it as a nation, only because of its size. Massive walls span for miles across the mountain pass that connects Khazdhul to the Bad Lands(much more on those some other time) and is maned by some of Khazdhuls finest warriors. Chozen by the gods even.
And of all these peoples there is one small, new faction. They call themselves the Wolf Clan... and their actions are what I will follow. Their leaders are the not so known Thorwald Holgerson and Afshin... I never learned his last name, don't think he even has one. And then there is Ling, the misfit elf that thinks he is a human. Hates his kin because of Afshin and Thorwalds ways, they trained him to be an in your face warrior, not a panzied assed archer. The wolf clan claim allegaince to no kingdom nor god, but rather sell their advanced fighting skills for a place to stay and a drink or two.
And we will begain this story, with the entrance of Ling, of the Wolf Clan.
