Duwende

Duwende

History & The Mystic War The great Elven nation of Duwende was one of the first nations to strike, starting the Mystic war. At first, many blamed them for starting it, and it was years before the truth was found out.

Duwende lost a lot of land in the Mystic war. At one point, it looked like Duwende would be wiped out, but thanks to some of its heroes, it managed to win an impossible battle and came out still one of the world's great nations by the end of the war.

Ending the War It was Duwende that helped end the war with hard-fought diplomacy that Braken was lacking. Many believe it was Duwende that stopped the Mystic war from never ending.

Modern Diplomacy & Trade In the last 80 years, Duwende has been one of the first to open trade. Its people remember the war, and because of this, they have been the center of diplomacy between other nations, often hosting talks of trade deals.

Society & Borders Despite their open trade, the nation itself still closes off most of its inner cities. Its port and border locations are open for outsiders, but they are not often allowed further into the nation. Many of the people here were alive in the Mystic war, unlike the short-lived races. Because of this, they actively work to make sure the past will not repeat itself.
