Herlach (HAIR-lahck)

The hardy goliaths who make their home on Erdall's Wrack have but one fortified city. Herlach is a solid trade outpost with thick walls and large stone buildings, designed to withstand anything the treacherous waters of The Kheersap throw at it. And throw they do! The sea to the south is tempestuous, stormy, and frigid year-round, but particularly in the spring, when storms that have traveled the long path around the back of the world, building energy the entire way, pound against the sturdy cliffs of Erdall's Wrack.
Whaling ships leave regularly from Herlach, heading into the deep seas to the south. Though most return (after all, the goliaths have specialized in ships capable of surviving the Kheersap's weather for centuries), few come back bearing everyone they left with. The people of the Wrack rarely share the island's scant natural wealth with outsiders, so whale materials are their major export. Since allying with The Empire, Herlach has also become home to a small population of enterprising goblins, and the occasional member of another race with an insatiable and inexplicable love of the icy, untrustworthy waters.
