The Second Citadel has stood, tall and proud, in the Northern Wilds for centuries. It is the bastion of humanity in the region, a settlement carved out from an unforgiving land. No matter what happens, you must remember this: there are people who call it home, people who love it, people who have never known anything but it.

Welcome to the Penumbra, dear Traveler. We hope you enjoy your stay.
