Entries linked to The Dreaming Empire of Dor across the Lore Codex.
Crow's Throne
Capital of the Dreaming Empire. A city of blackstone towers and golden domes built atop the Crownroot, obsessed with indulgence and dreams.
Arkest, City of Gates
The oldest and most dangerous city in the empire. Five cities in one — where every coin bleeds and every gate could open into something you cannot return from.
Spelloch, The Mage's Crown
The magical capital of the Dreaming Empire. Floating towers, spectral bridges, and reality that is not fixed.
Highgard, The Shrouded Bastion
The empire's northernmost citadel. Built into jagged peaks overlooking the Valley of Mistfall, it exists for one purpose: to hold the line.
Mourhollow, City of Flesh and Fire
A crucible where the weak burn and the strong are remade. The empire's martial proving ground, built near scorched volcanic badlands.
Black Tide
The maritime backbone of the Dreaming Empire. Naval fortress, shipyard, and sea lane enforcer on the southern coast.
Greythorn, The Withered Court
A city of decaying splendor built within the central swamplands. Ancient families cling to titles and hoarded wealth like corpses to crowns. The northern ruins conceal the Grey Thorn — Kane's ancestral keep.
Ironvale, Bastion of the Legion
The military heart of the Dreaming Empire. Carved into the Shieldmarch Mountains — a city without ornament, where only orders, steel, and purpose exist.
King Holgrim Mandrake
Current ruler of the Dreaming Empire of Dor, seated upon the Autumn Throne at Crows Throne.
The Kingsmen
Elite royal guard and enforcers of the Crown's will across the Dreaming Empire.
