The Anurell Peninsula is a region of southern Lustria originally charted by the High Elven explorer Anurell Seadrake, which is now home to the well-guarded and secretive High Elven bastion known as the Citadel of Dusk.[1a]
To the south of Lustria, around the cape of the Anurell Peninsula, is a small chain of three islands. These are claimed as the property of Ulthuan and host several High Elf colonies, which are protected by the forces stationed at the Citadel of Dusk.[1a]
The hated Druchii raid the Anurell Peninsula for High Elf slaves, a commodity that in Naggaroth denotes status exceeding other riches. High Elves would sooner die than become slaves of the Dark Elves. Beastmasters from Naggaroth also stalk the peninsula and its waters to fill their menageries. The High Elves based here are tasked with protecting Lustrian wildlife, and whilst many relish the excuse to fight Druchii, there are those Asur hypocrites who ignore the Everqueen's Decree themselves.[1b]
Spear Reef Island, though defensible, is a softer target for the Dark Elves than the Citadel of Dusk. High Elven warships from the citadel patrol the peninsula vigilantly, favouring offensive action when possible. Stealth attacks are conducted against Black Arks under cover of invisibility spells. Whilst most Dreadlords know where the Citadel of Dusk is located, the infamous Lokhir Fellheart routinely anticipates and thwarts Asur attacks. Occasionally, the tip of Lustria is also infiltrated by a Druchii assassin.[1b]
Lord Finrian Stardrake is a High Elven general, originally from the kingdom of Yvresse, who now calls the Anurell Peninsula home. Unlike most High Elf Lustrian colonists, who favour the safety of the archipelagos, Finrian owns an estate on the mysterious Culchan Plains.[1c]
Trivia[]
The Anurell Peninsula and the islands around the tip of Lustria are geographically analogous to the real world Brunswick Peninsula and Cape Horn of South America, the continent that is Lustria's analogue in the real world.
