Hybern

Location from acotar-silver-flames by

A kingdom of ash and bone across the sea, Hybern has hungered for Prythian's conquest for five centuries, ruled by a King who never accepted the Treaty.

Hybern is the ancestral enemy of Prythian, a kingdom that once nearly conquered the entire island and still dreams of doing so. Its armies are legion, its magic old and brutal, and its King has spent five hundred years weaving schemes to tear down the Wall and reclaim what he believes is his by right.

Appearance

A bleak, iron-grey land of jagged cliffs, cold seas, and fortresses carved from black rock. The sky is perpetually overcast, and the air smells of salt, rot, and the smoke of forges that never cool.

Also known as: Hybern, the Kingdom Across the Sea, the Iron Kingdom, the Old Enemy
