Hillfal

One of the largest and most important settlements in the northern regions, this fortress town is perched on the steep blanks of the Alunatal River. Originally built as a small, austere toll station, this position allows the austere fortress to serve as a defensive position, guarding both the river and the mountain pass from the barbaric Ackalite tribes to the north. The original station was destroyed in an Ackalite raid though, and the ruins formed the foundations of the new, stronger fort that stands to this day.

The fort of Hillfal is always manned by a full Legion of Ergoth’s finest soldiers, supported by a town of two-hundred just to the south which contains craftsmen, markets, and several less reputable establishments such as brothels, gladiatorial pits and gambling dens in which the presence of Imperial soldiers looking to unwind is common.
