HISTORY:

Estreas has always been a place of beauty, where all the inhabitants live in harmony. Their land is protected by ancient magic, making violence almost impossible here. Most of the country doesn't even eat meat; they feast instead on the tropical fruits, nuts, and the pure pools of water. The magic protecting the country is subtle, like the peoples that live here. They don't attack head on, instead they wrap around you, making you walk in endless circles. It rains often here, though they are quick, hard showers and they last but a few moments, leaving behind rainbows that seem to cover the whole country. The people wear very few clothes here, as it is always warm. The clothing they do wear is usually made from silks that cling to their curves. They sell some of the finest clothing in the world, though they usually sell more modest versions. This along with their great skill in medicine, and their world famous bows, make up most of their trade. About a hundred years ago the ruler decided to try to entice people to come visit the land and it worked. In fact, many rich couples from the Great Alliance spend their honeymoons here and try to visit once a year. It is a land of beauty and seduction, where almost anything can happen. The people who visit here are very reluctant to leave this paradise. And it is rumored that fertility is heightened to 95% chance of pregnancy.

During the War of Plight Estraes suffered little, and in turn helped develop methods which helped the Great Alliance succeed in freeing Aedonia, and indeed the world, from the Darkness of Daemon and Vylaska. During the Vampiric War, Estraes welcome all to their shores, shared their medicines and aided the world in getting back on its feet once more. Prosperous and rich the country turned its attention to securing their goods and their lands from the threat of Pirates and other invaders.

Unfortunately their fear of invasion kept them from facing a very real problem until it was too late. A plague unlike any other the world has ever faced struck hard in Estraes, and the country has weakened from this insidious sickness. This illness seems to only strike those with magical abilities and has, unknowingly, been the act of the Mendulese leaders. Whether the Estraean's will be able to uncover a cure and combat this plague has yet to be seen and the suffering of her people only seems to increase.
