of the Llaelese Order of the Golden Crucible. A
Khadoran military reserve has been maintained in
Leryn, but they have not bothered to secure the rest
of the region.
Resources: Iron, industrial metals, consumer crops
Industry: Alchemy, metal refineries, enginery
Ancestral Ruler: Archduke Tymeck d’Lyn
(executed at Merywyn)
Occupation Ruler: Koldun Volkh Lazar of the
Greylords Covenant
New Umbrey (occupied)
New Umbrey is a mountain duchy including
Laedry—some are already calling it New Korska—and
the areas immediately surrounding the city including
Redwall Fort, several lucrative coal mines, and the
northern border with Khador. This region bears
the scars of both ancient and recent battles; farmers
unearth buried warjack wrecks and the bones of soldiers
without much effort. Some already view New Umbrey
as part of Khador, and pressure is mounting to fold the
duchy into either the Korskovny or Umbresk volozkya.
Historically this region belonged to Khador after the
Corvis Treaties but was ceded to Llael as a concession
at the end of the Border Wars in 313 AR. Regaining
this territory was one of the main justifications for the
invasion of Llael. Umbreans of the region are in a state
of unrest, as most have developed a deeply ingrained
hatred for Khador in the last few centuries.
Resources: Coal, consumer crops, iron
Industry: Iron refinery, textiles
Ancestral Ruler: Lord General Alreg Vladirov,
Archduke of New Umbrey (missing in action and
presumed dead)
Occupation Ruler: Viscount Barak Ushka, vassal of
the Great Prince Tzepesci of Umbresk
Northryne, The (occupied)
Of the mountain duchies, the Northryne contains
the richest coal and ore mines producing much
needed ores processed and shipped through Rynyr.
Given the duchy’s wealth in resources, the High
Kommand considers this area strategically important.
Resources: Coal, gemstones, industrial metals,
precious metals, alchemical deposits
Industry: Metal refineries
Ancestral Ruler: Archduke Vydor Tadiri of the
Northryne (executed at Merywyn)
Occupation Ruler: Lord Palyn d’Myr, reporting to
Posadnik Igor Vojinovich
Southryne, The (mostly occupied)
It is said the Southryne contains the most fertile
lands of all the duchies and also encompasses the
capital city of Merywyn, Aliston Yard, and most of
southern Llael up to, but not including, Greywind
Tower. The bulk of Khador’s forces in Llael occupy
this duchy. A portion of the eastern lands remains
unoccupied, but these farming communities represent
no significant military threat.
Resources: Consumer crops, industrial crops,
timber, grazing land
Industry: Enginery, metal refinery, textiles,
alchemy
Ancestral Ruler: Prime Minister Deyar Glabryn,
Archduke of the Southryne
Occupation Ruler: Kommandant Mikhail
Ivdanovich, Count and Posadnik of Merywyn
Voxsauny (not occupied)
Voxsauny is a lucrative pastoral valley that includes
a number of Llael’s best vineyards, the town of
Rhydden, Greywind Tower, and a length of Llael’s
southeastern border with Ios. Along with the wine
trade, lumber economically supports this duchy. It is
the only duchy not yet occupied by Khador and has
become a gathering point for Llaelese refugees.
Resources: Consumer crops, timber, industrial crops
Industry: Vineyards, lumber mills, textiles
Ancestral Ruler: Archduke Balen di Voxsauny
(executed at Merywyn), his infant son Balen II
(currently in Caspia with his mother Sabyna)
Current Ruler: Lord Gregore Delryv IV, Duke of
Rhydden
