+The swamp was created by the minions of Gestron blocking off the flow of water to the southern half of Tarquin. This created dry canyons south of the hills where Gestron lurked and a great swamp in the flat farmland that makes up the western portion of Draxmore Valley. With the fall of Gestron, the swamp has receded and the farmland can again be cultivated.

+**Gresenbaad** (kingdom)
-The plains of Bravitleer lie in the north of Tarquin and butt up to the south bank of the Montamar river. This wide open area is encouraging development as the kingdom of Tarquin rises in population. The tower of Thadia is the home to the Bravitleer guard, which patrol the plains.
+The kingdom of Gresenbaad lay south of Tarquin. During Gestron's years, the kingdom was razed and destroyed. With the rise of Tarquin under King Jairin, Gresenbaad has joined the kingdom of Tarquin, swearing fealty to Jairin.

-**Thadia** (tower)
+**Keld** (large expanse of land)
-This is the home tower of the Master of Bravitleer, currently Carmen of Gantry (though as Queen of Tarquin she is absent of late.) The tower rises nine stories (thirty meters) above the plains of Bravitleer and hosts the Bravitleer guard who watch over the plains.
+The independent region of Keld holds a myriad of ranches and small hunting plots. It lies west of the Brothership of Belcronar monastery. The roads west out of the kingdoms of Tarquin and Rasheen pass through this region. Arik's home village of Darshen resided in Keld before its destruction.

+MPs is a famous pub and gathering site in Barrington. They notoriously will look the other way for the right amount of coin. It's owned and operated by two wealthy merchant 'brothers' who grew up together on the streets of Barrington. Often equated with debauchery, the drinking hall(s) and connected Grand Inn are intricately linked with a famous local event, the Arstince Festival.

-**Tarquin** (kingdom)
+**Primrose Inn** (inn)
-Once destroyed by Gestron and his minions, the residents of Tarquin were scattered to the winds and spun off into micro city-states.
