Asolade Hundred
Asolade Hundred is in the south-western corner of the
Kingdom of Kaldor. The Kald River forms the northeastern
boundary, the Osel river, the southern boundary.
The western part of the hundred is mostly flat and fertile farmland. The settlements are mostly manorial villages, similar to your own home village. The largest settlement is Jedes, with its tall and imposing keep. There is a monastery to the south, Bromeleon is the home of the shrine to St. Bromel and contains a large hospital. The monks also maintain a leper colony nearby.
There are two mining settlements in the hills, one Orofal, mines copper, the other, Tasinald, is a lead mine. The eastern part of the hundred is heavily forested and sparsely populated.
The roads are poor and can be dangerous, but all roads lead to Tashal, the capital, a great city where wise old King Miginath rules. To the east lies Daynora Hundred and Hutop Keep, home of the Sheriff of Osel, keeper of the king’s peace. Law
The manor lords hold court irregularly, they deal with disputes between the serfs in their village. Most of the manor lords owe fealty to Earl Dariune, a mighty lord who lives in a huge castle in far off Kiban. A constable, Sir Shernath Mirdarne, rules Jedes on behalf of the earl. The constable is a powerful man, able to call upon dozens of knights and men-at-arms. As Earl Dariune’s representative in the hundred, he can hold court over his vassals. But he is not above the king’s law. The representative of the king’s law within the hundred is the Bailiff of the Hundred. Serious disputes may reach the sheriffs court in Hutop, or even the king. Religion
Most people worship your goddess, gentle Peoni, goddess of healing and agriculture. You can be sure of charity and aid from the pious, but the goddess preaches a life of celibacy poverty and service for her clergy. You should take little, and expect little, from the lay worshippers.
The nobles worship Larani, goddess of the feudal ideal. Most noble lords will treat you respectfully, in most cases this is genuine respect for your calling. All nobles know that a lack of respect for the ‘peasants goddess’ can create problems.
Wanton Halea, goddess of selfishness is becoming popular with many merchants and freemen. You should preach against her ways.
Ilvir the craven lord is followed by some. His followers preach of fate and mysticism, some practice animal sacrifice. His followers should be gently guided to the true path.
Morgath Naveh and Agrik are dark and evil; bringers of death, chaos and destruction. Following them will damn your eternal soul.
