The game started life as Pedreira, named after the quarry vale where every hero begins. As the world grew past the vale, out to the fjords, the peaks and the gates of Helheim, the project needed a name for the whole realm. That name is KAVOR, after the first stone that holds the world up.
Pedreira Vale keeps its name. It is still home, still where the first sung stone rose, and still where your first morning in Hearthmere begins.
