Valsk
About
Flag of Valsk
Valsk is the northern-most city of the Kingdom and accordingly, only the hardiest people survive and somehow flourish in the harsh and snowy peaks. The culture of this stronghold against the elements therefore greatly values strength, bravery and loyalty; the men and women alike are tough, honour-bound and give no quarter to rubbish or bossy foreigners. Valski pride themselves on three things; their mead, their military and their smithing.
Valsk’s isolation from the mainland has left it unchanged by time and deeply traditional, causing its culture and language to diverge from the rest of the Kingdom. Old superstition is deeply embedded in the minds of the locals, and greatly influences their lifestyle. As a historically and still predominantly human city, this attitude extends to all elves in the form of mistrust and even discrimination in some cases. Utterance of the name Atros is considered a grave sin.
