Bleakmore

History
Until quite recently, Bleakmore was more akin to it's name than anything else of note. A small settlement set up as a go between for trade from Claypeak to eastern Sleetguard. With the Emberscar Problem now plaguing the kingdom, Lucien Blightbane brought The Hailstorm Academy to Bleakmore in order to train individuals who show the propensity to magics or the divine. This academy dominates the skyline of Bleakmore with the majority of the West District now owned and operated by the Academy
