The Morass

The Morass is a swampy land, neither great for farming, or hunting wildlife, or foraging for food. However with these slights, The Morass, is a thriving nation, and one of the greater lands of the Blackend Rock 's land. One of the three new found nations each man knows how to track in the darkest of night, knows how to notch a arrow like no other, and even the strongest of beasts cannot withstand their lethal poison tipped weapons. Men say they cheat for victory where-as Lord Lucas Maran would say they knows how to survive.

The Morass as the name entitles isn't a sight to behold, it is a dead and swamp-like land, but even with this downfall the Lord of the Morass, has made his men and people survive beyond measure, holding the smallest populace in Malona, they are rugged trackers and are skilled assassins, they field the most deadliest of men, silent and skillful with a bow, or dagger, they are infiltrators, and cause death and destruction onto any nation who slights them.

However The Morass was not always like it is today, they fielded an army of one thousand strong in past times, and trained to fight like any other man, until the Balnar were   released upon them when they went to claim Blazewood for their own, failing to see the threat Lord Maran, marched his men forward into the woods, and they were massacred by the beasts. Since that day Lord Maran has not forgotten this slight to him, and has trained men to work from shadows, be deadly without being seen, his greatest accomplishment was Lady Melissa, she was a beauty to be seen, he claimed her for his wife but trained her to be what no other man or woman on Malona could be. Beauty to kill.

He named her the Ghost of the Morass. For she was as silent as a wolf stalking its kill, as quick as a panther, and the grace of a cat, she was deadly just as she was beautiful, she was skilled with the Bow like no other, and knew more about the poisonous plants then any other man, could dream of, Lord Maran was pleased with his project, with his wife, and she was just as pleased. The Morass has no standing army like the other nations, whose army stands more then two thousand strong, but it has not need for an army, when a single blow can topple a whole nation. Lady Maran, is the deadliest of the deadly, but none who know of her skills still live, other then Lord Maran, for all who knew who she was, were executed in secrecy, for he would use his wife to gain the revenge he so desired.
