Minor Settlements

Ashill
Soot hangs in the air here from the charcoal burning; pure fuel for the cities of the League and the forges of Wintermark. There’s magic here too, the magic of Landskeepers who make the pollarded beeches grow, and the pigs thrive fat.
Stockland
A sprawling town known for its sheep and cattle markets. It’s where you take your stock if you’re a Household from the west of Upwold, and where you stay for an evening’s raucous drinking before heading back to your home. Stockland ale is exported around the Empire -- not because it’s particularly good, but it is recognisable, and can bring a lump to the throat of the homesick Marcher.
King’s Stoke
A pre-Imperial tower stands here, said to be the place where the rebels held back the King of Dawn in the March of secession, though if every family who claims an ancestor fought there is right, it must have been an easy victory...

Places of Interest

The Woldstone
An old dolmen said to be the first planted by Marcher Landskeepers when they claimed Upwold for their own.
