Burg Sunna

The Enigmatic Fortress of the West

Burg Sunna stands proud at the foothills of the mountains that divide the Thorn Marshes and Raspental Valley. This formidable castle is home to Lord Ferris, a seasoned knight and wise, though harsh, leader, and his mysterious wife, Lady Wyrdha, who is rumored to possess sorcerous powers. The castle's ancient stone walls rise nearly thirty feet high, making it an impenetrable fortress. At night, torches light up the gates, casting a warm glow and creating a welcoming atmosphere despite the fortress's intimidating presence.

Surrounded by lush countryside, Burg Sunna encompasses thirty acres with fortified towers and bastions that stand as sentinels against any potential invaders. Inside the walls, a thriving community of 350 people lives simply, relying on fishing, farming, and livestock to sustain their livelihoods. The fields around the castle are verdant, with crops swaying gently in the breeze and livestock grazing peacefully, contributing to the village’s self-sufficiency.

Special occasions at Burg Sunna are marked by vibrant celebrations where the courtyard is filled with traditional dances, music, and the laughter of children. The castle’s inhabitants take great pride in their heritage, and these festivities serve as a testament to their enduring spirit and the bravery of the knights who defend them. The castle also houses a small market where villagers trade goods, share stories, and maintain a close-knit community.

Lady Wyrdha’s presence adds an air of mystery to Burg Sunna. Her enchanting garden, filled with rare and magical plants, is both feared and revered by the locals. Whispers of her potent potions and healing balms circulate, drawing those in need of her mystical remedies. Some believe she can foresee the future, and her cryptic advice is often sought by those facing difficult decisions.
