Caer Pelyn (Japanese: ポカラの里 Pokhara Village) is a location in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones and is located in the continent of Magvel, within the eastern mountain range in Carcino. It is a remote tightly-knit village that shuns outside concepts like nobility, with a residents being put on equal standing with one another.[1] They rely on the surrounding area for all their needs, using resources like local moss for medicinal purposes.[2]

Geography

The town of Caer Pelyn is located in the high peaks of the Carcino mountains, within the Caer Pelyn Range.[3] It is southwest of Darkling Woods. It is located far up enough to cause breathing difficulties to those unaccustomed to the altitude.[4]

Though the location is not marked on the world map, there is an abandoned fortress to the southwest of Caer Pelyn.
