Slate Settlement in Ravare | World Anvil

Slate

Introduction

Found deep within the Shardtooth Range resides mining village of Slate. Known Most notably for supplying much of Haven's slate and its dangerous mining practices. Because of its location, it was able function autonomously throughout most of the Fall. It was eventually purchased outright by the Capital of Graystone in the year 87 AF when the settlement finally ran out of food.

Government

Though technically under the control of Graystone, Slate is overseen by the Miner's Guild and is not required to pay a monetary tax. As long as the settlement keeps supplying slate to the Capital, it remains unbothered by beuracracy.

Creative Water

Over the past ten years, members of Slate have found ways to conjure water seemingly out of thin air. With this method, less and less of the population is inclined to work the mines and instead focus on learning Faith-based magic.

History

Founded in 5 of Fall.
