The Abbey of Zarniwoop - 5th incarnation

Jenn-Kellon home settlement

This was a Jenn-Kellon (white light) settlement on the now deleted home server.


This is the 5th incarnation of the Abbey made on the second map of gold version, and is a remotely located sanctuary for chosen followers of Fo to enlighten their souls and to create beauty. The monks resident there guard all that is right and beautiful, and works to spread the love and teachings of Fo.

The Abbey areas

The Abbey features many spectacular sights of knowledge and beauty, and is known for the hard work of its residents. The Abbey was constructed just a stone throw away from the sparkling waters of Abbey Bay, and the Zarniwoop Peninsula on the north-western coast of the known world of the Home Server. The surrounding forests are home to many vile beasts, such as black wolfs and huge spiders, but also has many deer and other peaceful critters. However, Trolls and Goblins have been observed in the area, and is believed to have settled in the surrounding forest and nearby cliffs.

The Abbey itself contains many gardens, farms and endless tunnels through the nearby mountain, but also astonishing monuments and peaceful environments, that will tranquill anyone who wishes to find inner peace there.

The Abbey of Zarniwoop - 4th incarnation

Historical settlement

This settlement existed on an older map of Wurm.

This is a Home Server settlement. Started to continue the advancement from the first Abbot Zarniwoop. The Abbey of Zarniwoop is currently the 4th incarnation, numbered from the first in map 5. After the Highlands split to join Inacron and Unforgiven, Zarniwoop remained and converted The Highlands into The Abbey of the Highlands. Map 6 brought about The Abbey (TA) with Shiverth (our current Abbot). Map 7 was The Abbey of Lhasa. Gold has now brought about The Abbey of Zarniwoop.


Town Structure

This structure is based on the same order and principles left to the Monks when Zarniwoop continued his journey apart from them.

The Abbey is one of Wurm's first monestaries, and has existed for several maps, both in beta and gold versions of Wurm. Its existance will probably stand as long some of its original founders is found ingame.
