Divinity Wednesday #15

Larian Studios' latest "Divinity Wednesday" update is a little lighter than usual, as it only provides us with some background information and a single screenshot for the Broken Valley Village.
A haven for both the good and the wicked alike, the village in Broken Valley is a surprisingly peaceful place to visit, especially given its role in the ancient struggles between man and Dragon kind. Many travelling merchants call this place their home, and naturally that also attracts a good number of bandits, looking out for fresh, heavy purses to rob. Luckily, the local guards have a powerful reputation for their lack of tolerance with thieves in particular, and so despite having to still keep your eyes open for opportunistic trouble, Broken Valley Village is a relatively safe place to spend time.

The local area is also a main spawning ground for the insidious race of goblins, a less than trustworthy species that constantly keeps the local guardsmen and militia on their toes. Upcoming and aspiring champions regularly travel here to seek the prized goblin hearts as trophies, and to sample the famous local ale. Often at the same time!

Those with an interest in local lore and mythology will also be interested to hear that Lovis, one of the greatest Dragon Knights in the history of Rivellon, calls Broken Valley his home, and that alone brings its own wagon load of intrigue and adventure to the area. Both visitors and citizens alike talk in hushed voices about his mighty accomplishments and build on his legend with a mixture of fact and tall stories.
