Penninites

"I need you to listen to me. I know this is hard, but just follow my instructions. At the next fork in the road turn right, follow it straight on through until you encounter the stone guardians. Get between them and wait for the fog to lift. Follow the passage down until you see the great steps of Neo Oroseros. Another Penninite will be holding vigil at the top. Take my pendant, and tell them that we have a murker colony on the gray road and need reinforcements. I'll hold these things off. Now go!"

The Penninites are a chivalric order dedicated to helping travelers traverse the mountain tops, only asking for donations to help maintain the ways. With the rise of the Balloon Corp, they have gradually become a far smaller influence on the land as rich traders will hardly ever deal with them. However, they are still widely respected among the common folk, due to their virtuous behavior and service. They are some of the greatest warriors not directly tied to a single region.
