Peace through Knowledge

Cindralen is a tranquil land cradled between highland valleys and rolling hills. Its scholars believe peace is not passivity, but discipline—an active pursuit of wisdom through study, memory, and clarity. Founded by the House of Aelthwyn, Cindralen’s symbol is a dove resting atop an open book, and its people wear the sigil not as pride, but as promise.

Governance & Philosophy

Ruled by a Crowned Monarch the Council of Scrolls, Cindralen believes leadership must be proven through scholarship. Elders are not elected—they are remembered. Laws are sung before written, and memory is binding. Forgetting is seen as a civic failure.

Way of Life

The pursuit of clarity shapes daily life. Midday tea is taken in silence. Debates are recorded and archived, even between friends. Public gardens are cultivated into spiral patterns meant to quiet the mind.

Culture & Beliefs

Myrallune governs the heart. Caeltharyn, the mind. Between them, Cindralen has built a moral pillar rooted in restraint. Peace is not ease—it is willful stillness, harder than war. Their monks carry scrolls instead of blades.

Relations & Reputation

To outsiders, Cindralen may seem fragile or distant. But its influence is vast: it has brokered treaties across Serathorne and hosts the annual Concord of Ink, where envoys of nations meet in neutral halls. Even Velmara treads lightly around their words.
