Principality of Nulbish
The Principality of Nulbish is a fief in the south of the Great Kingdom of Aerdy.
Prince Harnnad of Nulbish has a smaller dominion than his rivals, but these are rich lands. North of the Thelly the land is fecund, and the gemstones found by river panners bring in good revenues. Because Harnnad himself has retained personal ownership and administration of Nulbish, he has become a rich man and thus can afford to levy light taxes on his liegemen, helping assure their loyalty.
However, danger and bandits are increasingly infesting these lands, and too many of Harnnad’s nobles have grown fat and careless because of the minimal taxes they have to pay their lord.
Raiders from the Gloriole Mountains also have begun to threaten river traffic along the southern banks of the Thelly. Elven bowmen were not an unexpected threat, but dwarven engineers from the Hestmark-Glorioles range have allied with them and can mount river blockades with logs and improvised rafts overnight, making them truly dangerous.
