The lunese settled just west of the peak of Mount Stone naming the city Crad Bern (Stone Mountain), they build a small cove town where they would go on to become an exporter of Stones and Gems. It is said that the Lunese had trade a relationship with the Aulmear, Many Lunese Gems and Aulmear pots have been found in Bern and Elren. This relationship didn't last long as it was during the delcine of Aulmear trade power, a place which the Lunese took up. This laid the foundation of rivalry of the Bernish and Aulder.

The Lunese spoke a Pre-Noxist tounge know as Lunese. Most of it has been deciphered.
