A Traveler's Guide to the Turamzzyrian Empire
Honneland
<<

Empire • NEXT >>
Honneland, nestled between low mountain ranges to the north and
south, enjoys a warm climate. Winters are mild, and rain is frequent,
though rarely torrential. Crosswinds often blow from west to east
across the Earldom, making for dust storms, gales, and occasional
tornadoes.
For centuries, Honneland was an imperial borderland, and the towns
and culture of this earldom reflect their martial past. With the
borders distant, the primary source of high adventure lies within
the treacherous Wizardwaste, for those brave or foolish enough to
enter. The knights of this realm have taken a fancy to great tournaments
and festivals to gain glory and fame. With Kezmon Isle now but a
memory, the flower of extravagant romantic chivalry has bloomed
brightly in Honneland, rivalling the great Duchy of Selanthia.
Immuron
Named in honor of the legendary Emperor Immuros, Immuron is a well-fortified
city that can act in times of war as a military stronghold. It was
built upon the site of the ill-fated city of Gor'nustre, and proudly
served for centuries as the outermost defense of the Empire. The
people are orderly and peaceful, with the peace assured by the overt
military presence of the Silver Shields, Immuron's city guard. Though
little conflict reaches this far into the Empire today, Immuron
still serves as the example of a fortified city.
Farming and tending livestock are prominent in Honneland, and with
its rolling hills and vast prarie, peaceful Honneland is the breadbasket
of the Empire. The earldom has a great supply of wild horses that
is famed within the Empire. Honneland also has plentiful silver
mines in the low mountains.

Immuron's famed Silver Well is said to grant wishes. Long ago,
a young woman wanted nothing more than to have her father, an Imperial
soldier, return home to take part in her wedding. One day at dawn
when she was drawing water from the well, a deer stepped out from
the trees and instructed her to descend into the well, fill her
mouth with water, then walk once around Imaera's temple without
losing a drop. She did so, and the very next day her father returned,
alive and well. Ever since that time, young men and women have done
the same in hopes that their wishes will also come true.
