Welcome to the Midlands – The Heart of the River Kingdoms

[omnipotentseal]

Reading Between the Lines (Canis Castrum) welcomes Kabal and her membership to the bountiful forests of Hex R. With their stewardship of the hex, we believe that they can fulfill its potential for crafting and trade. As your neighbors in Hex T, we made you a plate of Canis Castrum’s famous delicious doge doughnuts. This week’s Land Rush draft has put our focus on the oft neglected middle region of the map.

As the most geographically diverse area of the River Kingdoms, it is the only place where you can see the mountain crags of Golgotha with her necromancers and dread mines and the shining spires of Sunholm, resting on the gold plains beneath her cliffs. We have forests, croplands, and mountain hexes in abundance. With such a bountiful harvest, it only makes sense our settlements should enjoy close economic relationships.

Players can train practically all the available classes. We have clerics and paladins of Erastil to teach future acolytes of Old Deadeye in Blackfeather Keep. In Kabal’s settlement, members practice magic, crafting, trade, and the party planning. Those with a more martial bend can learn all the best PvP tactics from Golarions premier bandits in Aragon. Players in our region will never wont for excitement and training.

The midlands were made for only bravest adventurers! We share the most important treasure of the River Kingdoms, the Emerald Spire dungeon. For deep beneath her broken, green ruins are monsters, gold, and fame. When adventurers leave the dungeon, they can rest in the Emerald Lodge. Along with the Spire, adventurers can pacify monster escalations in at least five other hexes. Glory can be found the midlands!

Midlands settlements, neighbors, and friends, we invite you join Reading Between the Lines (Canis Castrum) in trade, adventure, and battle. This vibrant region can set the example by showing that players from sides of the alignment spectrum can cooperate to strengthen the global economy, concoct new PvP tactics, and share in PFO’s fun.

Beneath the midlands is the heart of the River Kingdoms!

Ambassadors and leaders please use thread to network. Together we can build strong economic relationships to help our diverse memberships. This is an invitation to coordinate a larger trade agreement with a focus on adventure and battle.

[Bluddwolf]

Let Aragon be the first to welcome you as our new, southerly neighbor. You have already placed yourself within our settlement (forums) as an Ambassador, so the transition should be smooth.

[omnipotentseal]

Thanks Bluddwolf! :)

It is nice to have the opportunity for our groups to finally communicate. Reading Between the Lines is in favor of players using every feature the GW devs build into PFO, including but not limited to banditry.

I hate you! Don't even care which islands you are at. That's enough for me to hate you. :-)

*Sigh* back to the office tomorrow.

@ Sunnfire & @Bunibuni

Does listening to Assassin's Creed sea shanties count as an island vacation? ;)

[Gol Morbis]

Now you're ready to sail to the horn!

[omnipotentseal]

@ Morbis

My roomies & I know Randy Dandy-O by heart now. We actually sang it without lyrics to our friends once.

[Lifedragn]

Sorry to be bursting bubbles, but not a single one of us are anywhere near the Heart of the River Kingdoms...

Maybe an ear of the river kingdoms?

[Gol Morbis]

So what you are saying is... we are in the North?

[Kadere]

When everything is North....nothing is.

[Caldeathe Baequiannia]

All that is not South is North.

[Lifedragn]

I am saying that building a town in the center of New York and claiming that since New York was the only state you could build the town in makes you the Heart of the United States is a bit out of the picture.

The heart of the Western Echo Woods is much more appropriate.

We can call you the Heart of Wew (pronounced woo)!

Yes.

I am not here for Pirate week which is good and bad, as pirate week is pretty crazy, but I am more intersted in the diving than bad Jack Sparrow impressions.

My knowledge of Golarion geography is a bit lacking. I've played Kingmaker twice. I still don't know where those kingdoms are located on a map of Golarion. Thank you for clarifying my gross geographic misnomer, Lifedragn!

The midland settlements are, in fact, the heart of the Western Echo Woods.

So, woot! to WEW. ;)

@Sunnfire,

Pirate Week does have quite a lot loot though!

Blackfeather Keep welcomes the alliance and looks forward to peace and the fruits of our labor in this region.

You guys should follow Mxyzptlk's link. The link to Blackfeather Keep in my OP sends you to VVV Gaming. They're welcome to join us, but they are not a midlands settlement. Vote for Agents of Erastil. They're paladins of the elk god! :)

I'll see about fixing this error ASAP.

[jericho616]

I am glad to see everyone here and talking about future trade. Sunholm stands ready to assists our fellow independent settlements and to join in the River kingdoms growing economy.

[<kabal> Bunibuni]

We have the cookies. Who has the marshmallows? Can't make S'Mores without the marshmallows with the cookies!

[omnipotentseal]

*tosses Bunibuni some marshmallows*

They're on sale today at our Bazaar. :)
