The walls of Rubeinruine stand tall, a mighty fortress overlooking the road to Ahnendorf. Located north of Jufal, it is an important strategic area that has stood for centuries. But now it stands in ruin, destroyed by Glurnser troops descending like locusts on the land and leaving nothing but destruction in their wake.
The once-invincible walls are battered beyond recognition—broken stones scattered across the ground like so much rubble. Within its inner courtyard lies a massive pile of ash and embers where Glurnser torches have set fire to all who dared oppose them. Nothing remains but the charred remains of those fallen defending their home.
Gone is any trace of life within these ancient walls; instead, there is only death and desolation amidst a chorus of screaming crows that fly overhead from one bitter battle scene to another. The soldiers march through this wasteland with no remorse or pity for what they have done as they make their way towards Ahnendorf—onwards towards more carnage and destruction.
The surrounding lands outside the Rubeinruine are scorched and blackened as if a great fire has swept through the area. Trees are toppled, their bark charred and leaves turned to ash. The ground is covered in thick soot, and any remaining plant life is wilted and dying—a heartbreaking sight to behold.
Yet even amid such sorrowful ruins, Rubeinruine still stands proud—a reminder that some things can never be destroyed entirely, no matter how hard one tries.
