Kingdom of Grania

Kingdom of Grania
The Kingdom of Grania is a moderate sized, respectable Kingdom. While life for the peasants is hard, for those who have skill and talent, like yourself, the Kingdom is prosperous and there is opportunity. Grania enjoys a favorable climate, with mild winters and summers a bit on the hot side at times but not overly so. The Kingdom runs roughly north-south in a strip of land between the Dunbard Forest to the east and the Sea of Lendahl to the west. There was a time when the kingdom was less populated, when traveling from the port city of Castillion, the capital city, to the port city of Notler meant travelling through open countryside. Not anymore! The arable strip of land between the two port cities, of which most of it is, is now covered with farms. Even so, much of its wealth lies in these port cities of Castillion and Notler. Indeed, of late, this has caused some concern that pirates might seek to exploit such wealthy targets.

Village of Shalton
The village of Shalton is a remote village that sits on the edge of a large forest beside one of the best fording spots on the River Casforin.  Located a few days travel west of the City of Castillion, Shalton once was a small farming community. That was some 20 years ago and while villages in the Kingdom of Castillion have remained mostly unchanged, Shalton is not among them. With the discovery iron ore in the mountains to the west and the founding of several iron mining communities, Shalton has blossomed into a large village of perhaps 700 inhabitants. The iron ore trade and accompanying metalwork performed in the village has made this a prosperous trading community.

Note on Names: I don't expect you to remember names. It's nice if you remember, but I won't penalize you if you don't. To help, I have posted a map with the place names (click the Game Map link to the right of the the die roller).
