Overview
In the south is Miaren, a forest of golden trees and fair winds, that lies on the border between Dawn and the Marches. In the early years of the Empire the Vallorn at Miaren was completely destroyed and at the heart of the forest the ruins of the city Seren reclaimed, to be slowly rebuilt. It is now considered the heartland of the Navarr nation, and a symbol of what can be achieved.
Major Settlements
Seren
Fallen city of Terunael once held by a Vallorn. In the early years of the Empire, the Vallorn was defeated, and the new town of Seren has been built in the ruins, reclaimed from the forest. It is now the premier settlement of the Navarr, consisting of a number of Steadings.
In early 377YE a number of fortified watchtowers and secure campsites were built around Seren, providing local bandit-hunters and scouts safe places to use in their pursuit both of lawbreakers and opportunistic orc raiding parties. The project was overseen by Bridget Eastville (senator for Mitwold) as part of a larger Senate initiative to provide protection to towns throughout the Empire. The defences are not sufficient to qualify Seren as a fortification, but have helped reduce outlawry throughout the territory.
Minor Settlements
Holt
A trade steading with a large and famed wayhouse, on both road and river. For those who wish to avoid Temeschwar for whatever reason, it’s a common stopping place on the road to Highguard from the North of Empire.
Rhonwen’s Fall
Built into the cliff under falls that feed the upper reaches of the Gancio. In less peaceable times when the Navarr spent more time hiding from barbarians than hunting them it was a refuge. The Navarr of old carved intricate patterns into the rock, of trods and of ritual dances.
Places of Interest
The Pool of Silver Clouds
A still pool in a quiet glade which, whatever the weather, reflects silver clouds and a blue sky. It is said that some Vates can divine the future in the waters of the pool.
