Ning-Valla

Overview
The Ning Valla, or "Land of Night" is the northernmost extent of Dulnaeria. It is a region of cold temperatures, and most of the year has only a few hours of weak sunlight.

Life and the Dead
The Shadowfell's influence bleeds through here, and on many days undead wander the ancient pine and fir forests. An ancient cobalt dragon, Amnesthoros, holds much of the region's peoples under his claws; exacting tribute from them in exchange for defense from the worst of the Shadowfell's threats.

Religious views
The peoples of the Ning Valla follow a peculiar branch of the family tree of the 100 Immortals. Led by the trickster-magician Wo Dan, this group places great emphasis on self-sacrifice, glory in battle, the right of strong to take from the weak, and the power inherent in deception. These values are quite different from those espoused by other followers of the Immortal Orders, and travellers here are quite frustrated with the Ning Vallans' ideas of how to treat strangers.
