Prue
Prue is a small farming village nestled within the foothills of eastern Craysilt. There are several settlements out here that house the workers providing raw materials to the The Unified Kingdoms of Craysilt. The living is rough out here, but not as rough as many of the residents would have you believe. These are well established work settlements, where it is in the The High King's Seat 's best interest to make them as safe and productive as possible. Therefore, money has been sunk, resources have been siphoned, and tax collectors have been notoriously lax. These towns and villages are safe. Or, at least as safe as any town or village in the rural heart of the Kingdoms. The High King 's influence is strong 'round these parts, manifesting as fierce patriotism and rugged individualism. People with names like 'Franky one-shot', or 'Smokey the Bear' simply litter the place, each with their own unique and colorful stories.

Tourism
Prue is not really a place people 'visit'. They go if they have to, and Prueds' gold is as yellow as anyone's, so there is indeed a thriving import/export business based in Prue itself, despite the strict regulations and authoritarian bent to the small populace.
Architecture
Barns and farmsteads, post and beam affairs built to last. It is very efficient, the Mayor having a strict military mindset. There is a bivouac within the bailey, and the Mayor runs military drills and reviews (parades) down the single paved road in the entire town, which is also within the bailey.
Geography
A stockade fort, up on a hill just north of a small isthmus. Most of the land has been levelled, cleared of stones, tress and debris, and plowed fields. Wheat is plentiful here, as well as barley and spelt.
Natural Resources
Wheat, barley, beets, sorghum, seasonal vegetables, hares/rabbits, deer and elk, etc.
