Eleum Loyce

Return to geography.

Eleum Loyce is an independent Vaniir city-state on the uncertain northern border of Drangleic's Hearthelm feif. It is ruled by King Elric. The city is built over a crater and guards access to a magical curse known as the Profane Flame. An order of knights struggles to protect the flame against cultists and power-hungry adventurers.

The party was sent here by King Vendrick to investigate why the city's defenses had been failing. The party arrived to find the frozen city all but abandoned and besieged by cultists, gnolls, yetis, lycanthropes, power-mad adventurers and more. Nikolai von Baer ended the anarchy by convincing King Elric, who had become corrupted by the demonic influence of the Profane Flame, to stop the ritual that had bound him. The robotically obedient, faithful Vaniir hadn't even attempted this.
