"Valeryk
Order: HOUSE VALERYK of the MIDWINTER MOUNTAINS
Motto: “Brave words, brave deeds”
Patron: Thunder
House Valeryk, the royal house of the Midwinter Mountains, was founded to honor Thunder for his courage. Like Thunder, the horses of House Valeryk stand up for themselves, protect others, and speak out when something isn’t right. They take heart in the face of challenges and dare to keep trying until they succeed. Horses who show amazing bravery may be granted the Order of Thunder and invited to join the nobility of House Valeryk.
Realm: Midwinter Mountains
In the heart of North of North lie the Midwinter Mountains, a circle of towering peaks surrounding a huge ice lake called Wintermere. It is a pristine winter wonderland with dramatic vistas kissed by sixty winters.These mountains are so tall that all but the lowest foothills are frozen in a state of permanent winter. Evergreen trees and icy-blue glaciers line the snowy slopes, where shedderpups and snugglefrizzes play. Every home here has thick walls, a pointed roof, and a roaring hearth to keep away the chill. One of the only warm spots in all the land is a hot spring near Valeryk Castle, on the shore of Wintermere, a large lake covered in ice. Set before the icy lake, the castle reflects a glow off its windows. Snow-covered pine trees frame the castle image. Here, the aurora borealis shines in the sky behind the castle.
Castle: Valeryk Castle
Valeryk castle is a snow and ice structure. The myriad of windows that speckle the vast structure radiate a warm golden glow giving a sense of homey pleasantness in a cold realm. The grandeur of the castle stronghold is shaped from complex concentration of buildings, towers, turrets and steeples that provides an overwhelming sense of awe and wonder.
