Hus Firma

INTRODUCTION

The eternal war of Hus Grata and Hus Firma has been going on for hundreds of years, the ancient Nordic tribes across the channel has been razing and flattening each other's settlements for as long as records have begun.   Depending on which faction you ask, the war started for one of two reasons. If you ask anyone from Hus Firma, they will tell you the legend of the Donheil brothers, a valiant and noble set of twins who started many of the towns that make up the Icy wastes. One day one of the towns started to declare the war on another, Firma tried to to stop the attacking town and Grata betrayed him, choosing to instead join in on the raping and pillaging. If you ask a resident of Hus Grata why the war started they will tell you that it was Grata who attempted to stop the town from violence and it was Firma who betrayed his brother and people. It was thought both brothers died in the conflict.  

Valwik

The town of Valwik is built around Hogsfall, a massive three story inne. The town itself is fed by six major cattle farms located on the outskirts of the settlement, or fishing in Lake Lostheim. The main export though is the leatherworking, some of the finest leatherworking in all of Jafare is made in Valwik. The town has no jarl, instead any issues are decided by the whole town collectively.   However there is trouble in Valwik, a secret cult of flame sourcerers seems to have emerged out of nowhere, the men of the town have been attempting to cull the kidnappings, but this has become more of a witch hunt than justice being served.  

Lochfort

The town of Lochfort is the largest settlement of Hus Firma. The town itself is fed by farming of wheat, grains and berries. The main export though is the Lochfort dark ale and Firmian Wine, some of the finest drinks in all of Jafare is made in Lochfort. The town is the largest of all settlements in Hus Firma and as such is the capitol.   Tomfin the Jarl of Lochfort is also the king. He has met Grata Donheil himself and signed the treaties of peace. He is saddened by the return to war but with Grata donheil returning to isolation there is no one to be the voice of reason when negotiations fail.  

Mara

Mara is the most heavily defended city in all of Hus firma, this is because it is on the coast near Hus Grata and strategically the easiest target. The town’s economy is built around fishing and hunting, however they are also skilled at word working and smithing. The Current Jarl of the town Mwir Foundross got his position by competing in a competition to produce a perfect blade to Tomfin, he succeeded and was rewarded Jarl of Mara.   However there is trouble in Mara, a band of frost giants are camped off the main road to the south and have been attacking any travellers, ordinarily the military would send a band to slay them, however most abled bodied men of the town are on the frontlines of war.
