Arrail

POPULATION: 150K   CITIES: Unden   TOWNS: Beowdel, Hustark   VILLAGES: Vulgreferth, Skinte  
  Arrail, the verdant jewel of Ceweren, revolves around its capital city, Unden. Nestled within the emerald embrace of lush, old-growth forests, Unden is a tribute to the harmony between nature and human ingenuity. Its houses, adorned with intricate carvings, rise organically from the forest floor, a testament to the superb craftsmanship of the Weyr woodsmiths. The town square hosts the renowned Eikthyrnir Brewery, a thriving enterprise famous for its lagers. Around it, daily life bustles: artisans selling their wooden wares, miners trading their precious ores, and townsfolk gathering to share tales over pints of Eikthyrnir’s finest.   The town of Beowdel, in contrast, is a serene haven, home to the Grand Library of Beowdel, housing an unparalleled collection of texts and scriptures, including precious manuscripts of Läänti Ascendism. Here, scholars pore over texts, deciphering ancient lore, while students attend teachings given by the resident elders.   Not far from Beowdel lies Hustark, a bustling hub of trade. Its weekly markets draw traders from across Arrail and beyond, exchanging everything from the famed local venison and woodland mushrooms to exquisite hand-carved furniture.   Vulgreferth, a quiet village known for its picturesque setting, is the spiritual heart of Arrail. The Shrine of the Ascended Stag, located here, is a revered pilgrimage site for followers of the Laanti way. Twice a year, during the Forest Awakening and the Harvest Moon, processions wind their way from Unden to Vulgreferth, carrying offerings to the shrine. The villagers, in turn, host a grand feast, featuring the hearty stews and robust lagers that characterize Arrail’s cuisine.   Arrail’s cultural tapestry is enriched by its prominent figures. Yrjänä Lokki, a native of Unden, is renowned as the master brewer behind Eikthyrnir’s world-famous lagers. His innovative brewing techniques have turned the Eikthyrnir Brewery into a household name. Meanwhile, Inkeri Väinö, hailing from Beowdel, is revered as a spiritual leader and scholar. Her interpretations of Laanti Ascendism’s teachings have illuminated the faith for many, and her writings are considered seminal works within the religious community.   With its fusion of tradition and innovation, its reverence for nature, and its bustling economic and spiritual life, Arrail stands as an integral and vibrant part of Ceweren, a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of the Weyr people.
