Analand is a country in the Old World. It is the home of the Analander and is ruled over by the King of Analand.
History[]
Analand is a small south-western nation, and is fairly young by the Old World's standards. It is bordered by the Shamutanti Hills. It suffered invasions from neighbouring countries in the past, so strength and resilience in adversity is a common theme of Analand's culture. It is closed in by a huge defensive wall with gates carefully watched by vigilant Sightmasters.
Narrative Role[]
The Analander's Quest[]
The Analander began their quest in Analand in the first game. They were ordered to retrieve the Crown of Kings from the Archmage of Mampang, whose Birdmen stole it when it was time for it to be passed on to Analand. They briefly trained with the Sightmasters before leaving the gates and beginning their quest.
Return or Loss of the Crown[]
Later, the Analander potentially chose to return to Analand, with the Crown or having destroyed it, and was greeted with cheer by its people regardless.
If the Crown was destroyed, there is some unrest over the loss of an artefact serving as a symbol of peace and wisdom, making the future uncertain. If it was brought back, there is doubt over whether or not the King is truly capable of wielding something so powerful. Either way, a new peace is forged.
