(Created page with "Renden is a nation of seafarers that brutally raid coastal towns and cities along the Inner Sea.

Known as the terrors of the Inner Sea, the Renden do not discriminate between any town or seafaring vessel of any nation. They will raid anything, leaving boats and buildings in burning ruins...") |

This stretch of woodland appears to be in a constant state of blighted [[decay]], and an enormous but withered World-Tree stretches its thorny boughs over the expanse of craggy forbidden shores. The Renden believe that the area is [[haunted]] by the souls of all humanoids killed violently. Needless to say, if this is true, then any Renden that sets foot on the shore will be torn apart by vengeful ghosts in a matter of moments. | ||
