Parthesh

Jutting from the rusty orange Tural mountains of Makanta are tall spires of black stone. This is the Temple of the Sun Thief  —a foul fortress from times long past surrounded by the ancient town of Parthesh. Beneath the spires, a vast gate blocks all entry to the military outpost of Parthesh, which sits in the shadows of the Temple. Desolate structures huddle between iron watchtowers, and soldiers of the Penitents of Rallumar patrol the tops of the walls and the massive gate ahead of you. As you approach, a guard on the wall barks, “Identify!”

On the western slope of the Tural Mountains, a militarized town called Parthesh has grown around an ancient temple to Aupuch used for ancient demonic sacrifices. Those who live in Parthesh are committed to the guiding truth of the new god, Gueris, whom they call Rallumar the Mountain. Unaffiliated with the Doheaga religion, the worshippers of Rallumar continue an eternal battle against the forces of Evernigh that plague the mountains.

In the past several years, Drynium corruption has become an issue in the town.  Creatures have become more powerful, and some warriors have been afflicted with the corruption.
