Kupala

Kupala is a region located in the northeast of the Leicester Alliance.

Profile

Considered a part of the Margravate of Edmund within the Leicester Alliance, Kupala is an autonomous region on the fringe of the mountains of Fódlan's Throat. It's rumored that the village that would become Kupala itself was founded by Chevalier, a follower of the heroine Seiros and one of the Four Apostles. The people of Kupala are known for making armor and weapons using precious minerals.

In the distant past, an unknown group attempted to conquer Kupala and many of Kupala's soldiers were wounded in the attack. An elder woman in the village gave the wounded a "holy" red liquid; some of those who were given the liquid were healed and acquired Crests, while the others were "changed, but not for the better" and left the village. The supports between the half-Kupalan Balthus and his companion Yuri speculate that an old man who saved a very ill Yuri's life when he was a child used a similar method.

Etymology

Kupala Night is a Slavic celebration of the midsummer solstice and likely the inspiration for this town.
