Argenta
Argenta is a high fantasy world — an island realm consisting of hundreds of islands, some as large as kingdoms, others so tiny that only a house and a letterbox fit on them.
Rather than epic wars or endless battles, Argenta focuses on the richness of everyday life, guilds, trade, and crafts. It’s a world where you might read about adventurers gathering at the Lazy Griffin Tavern in Arnasberg, famous for its honeybread and its charming innkeeper who’s heard every tale — mainly because adventurers are always trying to impress her.
Or you might hear of the wineries in County Dornmark, nestled in valleys near ancient dwarven halls, producing wines far superior to those grown elsewhere thanks to the closeness of the mountain folk.
Argenta is a realm mostly at peace — where there is no hunger or plague, and people generally treat one another with fairness and respect. But that doesn’t mean it’s without its quirks. Millers still grumble about lazy helpers, apprentices play harmless tricks on customs officers, and not every spell goes quite as planned — not to mention the goblin tribes.
It is a world held in balance by the everyday efforts of humans, dwarves, and elves — bound together by trade, guilds, the Empress, crafts, food & mead, quiet stories, and much more.
If you enjoy warm, thoughtful fantasy with a sense of depth and wonder, Argenta might just feel like a world worth spending time in.
