Unternberg is a small, charming village located south of Reschen, nestled in the rolling hills under the shadow of Mount Bergkastel. The settlement consists of several dozen timber-framed houses clustered around a central town square, with cobblestone streets leading off in all directions. A gentle river flows through the village, providing a calming presence to its inhabitants and a source of livelihood.
The people of Unternberg are hardy and resilient folk who have made their homes here for generations. They are kindhearted and warm towards visitors, always willing to lend a helping hand when needed. Each family has a plot of land to grow crops or raise animals for food and income. In addition to farming, some villagers make their living as craftsmen—creating exquisite furniture or practical tools from wood or metal—while others take on more dangerous professions, such as hunting wild game in nearby forests or fishing along the riverbanks.
Unternberg is ruled by Lord Klemens, an older man who has lived in a mansion on a nearby hilltop since his youth. He is wise but gentle-hearted and beloved by all for his fairness and generosity towards his subjects. Despite his age, he still rides out daily to inspect his lands and ensure that all is well with his people. Legend tells that in his youth, he was the fastest rider in the Duchy.
Aside from its hardworking people, Unternberg is known for its beautiful mountain views and fresh, crisp air. Visitors often come to the village to take in the area's natural beauty. The villagers are proud of their home and enjoy showing visitors around, pointing out different sites of interest or sharing stories about life in Unternberg.
At the village entrance stands the bridge of Unternberg, connecting the village to the south side of the river. This engineering marvel, made from stone and timber and illuminated at night, serves as a beacon for all who wish to enter Unternberg. The bridge symbolizes the village's resilience and ingenuity, standing proudly against the backdrop of the majestic Mount Bergkastel.
