Triel

Village in Elturgard

Triel is a stockaded village where the Trade Way meets the Dusk Road, south of Boareskyr Bridge, which became part of Elturgard.

A log-and-boulder stockade guards granaries packed for winter, and the gates close at dusk on travellers who arrived too late.

Overview

Triel lies in the Fields of the Dead, with Elturel to the south-west and the Trielta Hills to the north-east. It has few farms of its own and must bring in almost everything it needs, especially food, so much of the space inside its stockade is used to store grain for the winter.

The village locks its gates at night and most travellers are unwelcome after dark. By 1479 DR it had become part of the young theocracy of Elturgard.
