Established during the tumultuous Era of Beasts, Arnewynd's Endure emerged as the final and sole human settlement within Sevenfold Commonwealth, a place where the flickering flame of humanity, those who were once in the majority in these lands, refuses to be extinguished.
Perched atop a hill overlooking the western coast of Sevenfold, Arnewynd's Endure stands as the final bastion of humanity, a beacon where the flickering flame of civilization refuses to be extinguished. Though not entirely closed to outsiders, Arnewynd's Endure acts as a human sanctuary. Nearly every resident is human, and outsiders are a rare sight, Most Therans rarely venture within its walls, preferring trade and interaction along the city’s outskirts. The city has preserved its monarchy, ruled by the descendants of the Ragnarthane bloodline, a living link to the old kingdoms that once flourished across the land of Sevenfold.
Arnewynd's Endure is divided into two distinct sections. The Upper Ring is the heart of high society: ornate estates, meticulously maintained streets, and the halls of the monarchy itself dominate this elevated district. Here, non-humans are strictly forbidden, and only those of the noble or elite classes are permitted entry.
The Lower Ring houses the common populace. While it is overwhelmingly human, the occasional non-human can be found—traders or wanderers, yet always in small numbers. The city is deeply conservative, its citizens viewing the Therans with caution and reserve. Though the chaos of the Era of Beasts has long passed, the scars remain, and the city stands vigilant, guarding both its people and its heritage.
Within the walls of Arnewynd's Endure, the past and present converge. The Upper Ring exemplifies human elegance and authority, while the Lower Ring embodies resilience and community. Together, they preserve a way of life that has endured centuries, a testament to humanity’s enduring spirit and its ability to survive, adapt, and flourish even in a world forever changed by the rise of the Therans.
History
The city’s origins are entwined with humanity’s darker past. During The The Throne War, humanity's reckless ambition and technological advancements led to the creation of the Subjurforged—twisted animal experiments designed to serve humanity and devestate their Luminary rivals. But when the Therianthropic Convergence shattered Ignisar's order, these creations gained consciousness and free will, becoming the Therans. Overcome by confusion and rage, their first instinct was to fight. They turned against their creators, igniting a devastating wave of destruction that nearly erased humanity.
More than two centuries have passed since the bloodshed. A fragile peace blankets Sevenfold, yet the scars of that tumultuous era remain. The Therans initially fought not only against humans but also among themselves, struggling to find their place in a world they had inadvertently reshaped.
