Valley of the Mage

Greyhawk Realm

Valley of the Mage

The Valley of the Mage is a realm in the Flanaess.

History

The earliest known habitation of the elven sub-race that would come to be known as Valley Elves. The Valley Elves lived in isolation, ruled by a king of their race, until they established relations with gnome traders whose commercial interests extended as far east as the central Flanaess. Eventually, a population of these gnomes came to inhabit the Valley, as subjects of the Valley Elf king. Humans followed, being allowed to settle in small communities under the rule of a human earl, who acted as a vassal of the elven king. Despite this, the Valley remained relatively isolated, it existence commonly unknown beyond its neighboring states, of whom Geoff had the most contact, despite the disapproval of that nation's elven inhabitants.
