Blancmill
Blancmill, the capital of the Kingdom of Llywelyn, is a fortified city that stands as a beacon of strength and resilience on the Isle of Llywelyn. Ruled by Sovum Coman Morain, a human of mixed Daoine and Northlander heritage, Blancmill serves as the heart of the kingdom's political and economic life. The city is a blend of architectural styles, reflecting its ruler's diverse lineage, with both stone Daoine fortifications and Northlander-influenced timber structures.
The city’s high walls, built to fend off both human and lycanthropic threats, rise imposingly above the surrounding lands, offering protection from the growing danger of feral lycanthropes that roam the inland regions. Blancmill's streets are bustling with merchants, craftsmen, and soldiers, all contributing to the city’s defense and economy. The central keep, where Sovum Coman resides, is a symbol of authority, standing at the highest point of the city, overseeing the kingdom with a watchful eye.
Sovum Coman Morain is a ruler caught between his duty to protect his people and the constant fear that lycanthropy could spread within his city. His mixed heritage makes him a unifying figure, but the ever-present threat of lycanthrope infection has caused significant strain in his relationships with other monarchs and nobility. While his military campaigns against the lycanthrope-infested lands have been effective, they have come at a cost—paranoia and fear have gripped Blancmill, making it difficult for the sovum to foster trust and cooperation with neighboring rulers.
Despite these challenges, Blancmill remains a vital and influential city. The people continue to look to Sovum Coman for guidance and protection, though whispers of fear and mistrust spread through the streets. The threat of lycanthropy is always present, shaping the culture and politics of the capital as the kingdom stands on the edge of both hope and despair.
