VALE OF AESTRERIA
Aestreria History
The Vale of Aestreria was created by Meihui in 1 BC for all fairies. There is a protective barrier enclosing the Vale, meant to keep outsiders from coming in. Because the Vale contains pure light magic, it makes it a target for individuals who have darkness in their hearts.
There are fairy guardians, also known as the Gemstone Guardians, who hold power over the twelve major gemstones and two of the strongest minor gemstones. They use their power to protect the nation and purify the lands as needed. Every century, the mantle is passed down to a new set of fairy guardians.
The major gemstones include garnet, amethyst, aquamarine, diamond, emerald, pearl, ruby, peridot, sapphire, opal, topaz, turquoise. The minor gemstones include bloodstone and moonstone.
Their main towns are Crystalgrove and Silvermeadow. However, Silvermeadow is where all fairies reside. Crystalgrove is the source of their power.
