Eisen's Village

Lore & Background

Eisen is a dwarf who, although not as long-lived as elves, has a significantly longer lifespan than humans. However, despite his extended lifespan, he is past his prime and has grown old. As a result, he declines Frieren's invitation to embark on her new adventure, choosing to spend his remaining days in peace and recommending Stark to accompany her instead. The village itself is not described in detail in the source, but it is the place where Eisen raised Stark, the young warrior who serves as a replacement for him on Frieren's adventure. Stark, despite his timid nature, is a strong and capable warrior and loyal to his companions.

In Their Own Story

Eisen raised Stark in his village, training him as a warrior. When Frieren and Fern came to recruit Eisen for their journey, Eisen declined due to his old age. Instead, he sent Stark to serve as the frontline fighter in battles, a role that Frieren and Fern, being magicians, are unsuited for. Stark stepped up, leaving the village behind to join Frieren's party.
