Kalorn's Chronicles - Chapter 1, Part 1

Rose Haven. Home of one Estellaese Milborrow. A little town which

converted itself from supplying airships for the war to being a

little outpost supplying merchants travelling the mountains.

Jutting ridged teeth cutting across hundreds of miles created the

Saddogs Mountain range. Sharp teeth forming a barrier with few

ways through, this was nobody's land. A land of goats and

eagles -- until the humans brought the airship. That invention

turned the tide of the war. It also made this land valuable.

From here, the Sapiens could supply the front lines. The

airships could run the winds from the south saving valuable

days and the incredible height gave them full view of the sky. Should

any dragon attempt to pass the mountain range a dozen airships

would encourage the creature to turn back. When the war ended,

so did the outpost.

To this, Elsie's family called home.

Suppliers to airships the old outpost contained all that a

merchant guild could want: warehouses, docks, simple housing,

and a good location.

To protect themselves from the endless winds, the townspeople

built tall rock walls to walk between. Tunnels dug into the

mountain allowed easy passage between streets. Timber lined

the tops of the walls to keep out snow during the winter.

This small town in a remote part of a mountain range would be our

starting place in the story.
