Background:
The Kingdom of Krelyiv originated from the far-traveled Vishgardians, who, after exploring the Southlands and witnessing the grandeur of Emor, chose to settle near their ancestral shores and form their own kingdom. Over time, they blended their Nordland heritage with Southland influences, establishing themselves as a powerful and distinct state. The settlement of Morovsk, founded during these early years as a lakeside trading post, became the foundation upon which Krelyiv grew into a powerful and distinct realm.

Perched atop the highest hill, the stone fortress of Morovsk stands as a symbol of strength and resilience. Strategically located, it overlooks the border with Vishgardia and guards the city’s western flank. This imposing structure has long served as the kingdom's first line of defense and a testament to its enduring independence. Morovsk is a vibrant cityscape crowned by the Golden Gates, a towering brick gateway topped with a small church. The Dormition Cathedral, with its five iconic domes, is the largest and most revered structure in the city. Narrow streets wind through neighborhoods of tightly packed townhouses, creating a bustling yet harmonious atmosphere within the city walls.
