Asbravn

Town in The Green Fields, The Western Heartlands

Asbravn is a quiet market town in the farmland of the Western Heartlands, where farmers sell their produce to buyers from Berdusk and Iriaebor.

Lush farms, tidy barns and ponds surround a sleepy market square, where buyers from the cities haggle over grain beneath an old pillar topped with crumbling stone horses.

Overview

Asbravn lies in a shallow valley between the Dusk Road and the Uldoon Trail; on our map it stands in the Green Fields. It is the market of the southern farmers, and buyers from Berdusk and Iriaebor come every day. People say its market fills bellies all along the Chionthar.

The town stands on the site of Urdrath, an old city of horse nomads. Only a cracked pillar crowned with horse heads remains above ground, but the city's catacombs still run beneath the streets.
