   6 MAJOR FACTIONS AND RUMORS:
   7 - The Alentejo United Army: The primary military force attempting to establish civilized order. They are currently waging a bloody two-front war: pushing back savage Orc tribes along the main roads to Évora, and holding the coastline against swarms of chitinous Antmen.
   8 - The One God Religion: A zealous, monotheistic faith rapidly gaining power. They are actively trying to expel all other deities and pantheons from the island. They are currently funding a massive, joint expedition into the dangerous Setubal Ruins.
   9 - Évora's Magical Users: An alliance of wizards, sorcerers, and scholars. They have partnered with the One God Religion for the Setubal Ruins expedition. Separately, they are heavily invested in exploring the magical mysteries of the surrounding sea and dissecting giant Antlions to discover combat vulnerabilities.
  10 - The Harpers: A secretive network of spies and bards working for the greater good. In Alentejo, they are quietly investigating the true motives of the One God Religion while launching covert scouting missions into the dense, unexplored forests of the southeast.
  11 - The Zhentarim (The Black Network): A ruthless, shadowy syndicate driven by greed and domination. Their primary, secret objective on the island is to discover and breach the legendary "Alentejo Central Vault."
  12 - The Emerald Enclave: A druidic order dedicated to preserving the balance of nature. They oppose the rapid, destructive expansion of civilization and seek to establish a natural, primal order across the island's wilderness.
  13 - The Traders Guild: A wealthy and cutthroat coalition seeking a total monopoly over the island's safe commercial routes, heavily reliant on the Army's success against the orcs.
  14 - The Farmers Guild: The economic backbone of the realm. They are focused on sheer survival and production, supplying the island with cattle, renowned regional cheeses, and robust wines.
