As night falls, lanterns illuminate the cobbled streets with a warm, golden glow, creating a magical ambiance. Colorful banners hanging from balconies and windowsills flutter in the evening breeze, proudly displaying loyalty to the Duke of Jarlshelm. The smell of freshly baked bread and roasting meats wafts through the air, mingling with the sounds of laughter and music from nearby taverns. Despite the city's lively atmosphere, whispers of strange creatures lurking beyond the borders persist, hinting at dark forces that the citizens dare not discuss openly.
The people of Klausen are known for their hospitality, often inviting travelers to share stories over a hearty meal. The market square is a hub of activity, with vendors selling everything from local crafts to exotic goods brought by traders from distant lands. The city's defenses are always on high alert, with patrols regularly scouting the surrounding area for any signs of trouble. Klausen’s resilience and vibrant community spirit make it a unique and welcoming place, even amidst the looming threats.
