Monastery Peninsula

Monastery Peninsula is, logically enough, a peninsula with several large monasteries located upon it. Most of Toswald’s monks live here, where they spend their lives devoted to various gods by taking vows of perpetual silence (or, in some cases, vows of nonstop jabber). Monastery Peninsula is also where Toswald keeps its powerful relics when they aren’t in use. The relics are tended by the monks, who are guarded by officers of the Toswald military disguised as monks and local wildlife. Most locals think of Monastery Peninsula as a place of seclusion, where you go if you wish to live a peaceful and ascetic life. This is an accurate, if incomplete, perception.

Monastery Peninsula accepts applications from people wishing to become monks, or those who simply wish to make a pilgrimage to the peninsula. If you want to get away from it all for a while (or if you want to steal the Toswaldian government’s relics), you would be hard pressed to find a better place to visit. All you have to do is convince the monks there (by means of a letter and a drawing of yourself looking appropriately contemplative) that you’re a very relaxed and sober person who is serious about denying yourself pleasure. If the monks approve your application and get approval from the Quing of Toswald, you can come.
