Free 32 page mostly stat free overview intro to a great world and city setting that was the playtest for 3e D&D. Giant theocratic empire that is decaying and splitting into city states and religious civil war of succession. The Holy Lothian empire is based on the church of an ascended paladin that is tied into the government with an on again off again history of persecuting arcane casters, and a background of old gods so you can have a familiar medievalish church plus D&D polytheism with a pantheon of your choice. I found it very evocative in themes and tropes to use and incorporated it heavily into my homebrew.Plus there is the <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/24802/Ptolus-Monte-Cooks-City-By-The-Spire-Ptolus-Core?affiliate_id=17596" target="_blank">800 pages or so of the in-depth Ptolus Setting books</a> for detailing out the factions and NPCs of the titular trade city state, and a great epic D&D adventure <a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/product/520/The-Banewarrens?affiliate_id=17596" target="_blank">the Banewarrens.</a></blockquote>
