After the death of Gideon, one of his disciple, Renes, escaped the clutches of the Seran Ghazis, and fled to what would become Calan. Pursued by the infidels, Renes scaled a lone mountain. Upon the peak of that snow capped mountain, God came to Renes, and told him that he would build a church in memory of Gideon that would last the ages.

Having shaken the Ghazi pursuers, Renes descended from the mountain, and built the first church of Gideon, which would later become the Cathedral of Saint Renes. 

Saint Renes would become an important figure in Calan, and the Church of Gideon, mostly known for his missions across the Thera Sea to save Gideonites from suffering the same fate as Gideon himself. The petty kings that emerged to rule the area generations later would all claim anscendry from the saint.

Renlan itself is dominated by Cloudbreak Mountain, with forests nestled about its foothills, and rocky outcroppings that extend to the north defining the region’s border. Port towns and farming villages dot the southern coastline. The primary settlement in the fiefdom is the Cathedral of Saint Renes itself. Standing as an architectural wonder, the lower cathedral and surrounding town is built upon the knees of the mountain, with its upper spires protruding from the mountain high above the land.  

Renians are a God fearing people, pious and adhering to strict obedience to the tenants of Gideon. They are ruled by the Archbishop of Renlan, a position that has been held by the powerful Cegrik Dynasty for generations.
