Skyss - Story Background
This is a web version of the notebook that has the background to my NaNoWriMo 2016 entry 'Noren the Strong', which is a medium-level fantasy story set in a world of my own creation. It's influenced by everything I've ever read, and loosely based on a Norse 10th/11th century blending with some ancient Roman, although the ships are more like 17th/18th century. Skyss is the northern state the main characters come from, but there is a whole world and other states exist, some of which will be linked to here.
NB this is a work in progress and is a means for me to be able to remind myuseful what I've written so that I stay consistent.
