Brightstone Village

A small settlement in Celdin, west of Oinmoor. This village was built underneath the shadow of Brightstone Keep, where it gets it's namesake from. For a long time this village was peaceful until the keep became infested with migrating Orcs from the Western Wilds. Many of the villagers were captured upon their arrival and dragged into the keep, imprisoned for the Orcs' own cruel reasons. That was until the arrival of Darrow, Raina and Lazarus. Together, they liberated the keep and all it's prisoners, who were so awed by their strength that they eagarly inducted themselves into Lazarus's practice of Gatism. The reborn villagers returned home telling tales of wonderous heros, whcih in turn inspired the rest of the vilage to convert to Gatism. Thye sacked the Trinity's decrepit chapel and turned the now-empty keep into a place of worship for the Gate. Months later, the Trinity attacked the village declaring all of its Gatist inhabitants heretics. They razed the town with holy fire and took the villagers into the keep to abolish Brightstone's new Gatist beliefs. While in the process of being "converted" Morngrim, Lazarus and Raina managed to slay a Trinitus, shutting down the Trinity's men and clerics. They were freed once more and became even more dediacted to the religion of Gatism. As they continue to rebuild and perfect the Keep, Gatism spreads throughout western Celdin, much to the Trinity's ire.
