Welcome to Empire
The Empire of Adana has existed for six hundred years. The imperial house exerts only loose control over its major vassals and the empire much resembles a broad confederation or alliance. Nonetheless, for most, that has meant six centuries of relative peace after the cataclysmic Third Greytide. The empire's neighbours have rarely been able to challenge it openly. Some worry that times are changing.
The city of Sanctuary is the capital of the empire and home to the imperial court, a term encapsulating any noble who happens to be in the city, and any commoner able to move in noble circles. Sanctuary is the social heart of the empire, the place where alliances are formed and plans made, where even the most restless of adventurers go to find companions and to plan their next steps.
