Barony of Mill Creek
Overview
The Barony of Mill Creek lies nestled on Keoland's northeastern border. It is part of the shared border with Gran March and the Duchy of Ulek. Within Keoland, it is bordered by the Duchy of Dorlin, the County of Marlbridge and the Barony of Axewood. Considered a backwater by much of the kingdom, it boasts only one sizeable town, Black Pike. Black Pike sits on the shore of the Sheldomar River, making it the starting point for many merchants returning through the Duchy of Ulek. Castle Vorgax is a half day’s ride from Black Pike and is where Baron Vorgax resides. Baron Vorgax of Mill Creek has never been a major player in Keoland’s political scene. Wielding neither money nor might in sufficient quantity to have much say in matters of state, he contents himself with his favourite pastime, hunting. His Barony is known throughout Keoland as an idyllic retreat for the wealthy who frequently return from their trips refreshed and relaxed. Other than the Royal District and City of Niole Dra, Mill Creek is the smallest province within the kingdom. Despite being the gateway to a fair bit of trade, the Barony suffers from an economic standpoint. The roads and villages are of lesser quality than one might find throughout the rest of the Kingdom. The exact reason for this is unknown, although it is said that Baron Vorgax prefers a more “rustic” feel.
