Kingdom of Khadhalaya
Khadhalaya is on the east-central coast of Jaati. Warm currents flowing from the south give this area some of the warmest climate in the region, which is reflected in the nearly tropical trees and crops that grow there. The small farmers of Khadhalaya grow plenty of food to support the cities and for export, along with cotton for fine muslin cloth. One of the country’s most important products, though, is the teak wood grown on plantations around the Gengba River. It supplies the raw material for local craftspeople for the manufacture of furniture, chests, carved statues, and other fine products. The wood is also desired by builders and crafters outside of Khadhalaya. The easiest way to transport large pieces of wood or whole logs would be to send them down the river to Jalebas and on to Elogong. However, since all trade in Elogong is controlled by Castorhage’s Far East Company, some producers do not believe they receive good prices there. The cost of land transportation to one of the smaller ports along the coast is also significant, though, so most end up just going through Elogong.
