Firiona Vie
Excerpt from a press release...
LEAGUE OF ANTONICAN BARDS ANNOUNCE NEW MAIL ROUTE
FIRIONA VIE, Kunark. February 1, 3178--
Today, the League of Antonican Bards, responsible for maintaining communication across Norrath announced that they have established a mail route to the newly discovered continent of Kunark, located across the ocean, south and east of Antonica. The new route will carry mail from Port Faydwer to the Elven outpost of Firiona Vie, which will serve as main port-of-entry and battle staging grounds for adventurers arriving in the new lands.
The outpost of Firiona Vie was established soon after word reached King Tearis Thex, King of Felwithe and leader of the Koada`Dal, that his daughter of the same name had been kidnapped by lizard creatures now known to be named the Iksar. The King commissioned Galeth Veredeth, once-Lord and High Paladin of Tunare, to establish the outpost on Kunark and return his daughter to him, lest Veredeth's life be forfeited for failure. "I cannot allow those vile creatures to keep my daughter and only heir to the Koada`Dal throne from fulfilling her destiny," says King Tearis Thex. "Galeth Veredeth had best not fail me."
After boarding the boat from the docks in Butcher Block, I was completely unprepaired for my arrivial in the elven outpost of Firiona Vie. Through the mists a beacon of light guided our way into harbor. As we drew closer, the mists parted and I beheld the wonder of Firiona Vie itself. There, in the center of an small peninsula was a statue devoted to Firiona herself and it was her that guided our ship into harbor. May Tunare guide her as she guides many travelers to the dangerous realms in Kunark and I pray for her safe return.
