Elven Wealds within the Grand Duchy of Rhyl

Steel Realms

There are several Elven Wealds within the Grand Duchy of Rhyl. The Wealds are mostly typical of the Wealds of the Steel Realms. They are mostly in forests of the Territories and Fiefdoms of Rhyl within the Grand Duchy of Rhyl. These are managed and there is a larger peace kept due to the existential threat of the Lich Lord.

Relations with Outsiders: Although the elves and Smallfolk faerie-kin of the duchy live mostly separately from other inhabitants, secure in their Wealds, over the centuries the culture of Rhyl has influenced their outlook. They still have the generally derisory view of outsiders, the greater context of a shared championing of life has brought them closer to other humanoid allies in the north.

Defining Ideal: The Grand Duchy of Rhyl has been "The Shield of the North" in the wars of The Noble East vs. The Broken Lands for thousands of years as well as stradling the crossroads of many powers and maintaining a tense peace. The Chronicle of Rhyl shows it first as many fiefdoms of 'The Lands of Rhylan' (CY 5500's), then a united kingdom (CY 5980), then as a duchy of the High Kings' kingdom of Gladnor (CY 6514). All citizens in the north take the pledge of Rhylan the Living.

Culture: Rhylian ( 'rill', 'rillian') locales have locally flavored experiences, but unless noted, follow general Territories and Fiefdoms properties and all have shared culture - languages used, Character Experience, institutions, Law, etc; Most Settlements includes the basic experience of Characters of the Steel Realms.

Ties With the Heralds of Rhyl: The Ducal Lineage, the Ducal Guard, the speakers for the Elven Wealds of Rhyl, locals of the Territories and Fiefdoms of Rhyl know those near them, and all those trained and dwelling in the Lodge of the Songbird know the Heralds of Rhyl

Resource Accord with Rhyl: The active version of the Rhylan Weald Accordance that govern resource management is carved upon a preserved tree stump in the City of Klyben in the North District of Klyben for all traders to be able to reference. Per this accord the elves post signs using bright yellow ribbons (from Ten Stacks) to mark their Weald Boundaries.

Deep in all Elven Wealds of Rhyl, the locations of Tell Cunetha & Houska Castle, and the Three Blades of Ceith Grebatain have a Call Stone as well for the Har Cunetha.
