The Village of Hommlet |
  The Village of Hommlet—Hommlet as it is commonly called—is situated in the central part of the Flanaess, that portion of eastern Oerik Continent which is known and "civilized". The village (actually hamlet-sized, though local parlance distinguishes it with the term "village") is located some 10 or so leagues southeast of the town of Verbobonc, on the fringe of the temtory controlled by its noble Lord, the Viscount of Verbobonc. It is at a crossroads. To the north is the mighty Vetverdyva River, along whose South bank runs the Lowroad. Many days travel to the east, on the shores of the Lake of Unknown Depths (NyrDyv) is the great walled city of Dyvers, the village of Sobanwych about halfway along the route. Below that to the southeast and east are miles and miles of forest, the Gnarley, beyond which is the Wild Coast, Woolly Bay, and the Sea of Gearnat. The road south forks a league or so beyond the little community, one meandering off towards the Wild Coast, the other rolling through the lower Kron Hills to the village of Ostverk and then eventually turning southwards again into the elven Kingdom of Celene. The western route leads into the very heart of the gnomish highlands, passing through Greenway Valley about a day's travel distant and going onwards to the Lortmil Mountains far beyond. |
