The Fjoron Port
Demographics
100 per cent Firbolg population. The demographics on gender are more confusing since a lot of the population doesn't much care for genders and pronouns.
Government
The settlement is run by and for the religious organization of the Inner Listeners. Donation to them is a must and is usually considered as the tax, since it goes to paying for things which the government would usually spend it on. It pays or feeds the High Listener and allows them to keep their residence and the religion's equivalent of a church nice and neat. It also goes to trading for the services of those who are hired by the Listener to run errands for the organization or for the hamlet and any of the Fjorerners needs.
Infrastructure
Simple structures, only some of which have more floors than the first and the basement. The worshipping alter for the Inner Deer gods is the highest structure, but that is merely because it is both built up to the second floor and has ornaments which elevate its total height, such as the antlers on top and the pole they stand on.
Assets
There is a family of people which creates and trades or sells items such as weapons, but they are mostly made of wood, stone or simple metals, with the exception of the arrowheads and daggers made of some type of gems or more advanced metals, though these are quite expensive due to their rarity, as well as the precaution and care that one must take while crafting them or risk ruining the only piece of this material they have.
There are also hunters and a very small collection of farmers and gardeners, with a similarly sized population of fishermen, who all sell or trade away their goods to the others in the village.
History
This particular Firbolg tribe has resided within this area and settlement since for over five hundred years before their current dating system took place, after the discovery of and events that go along with The Whispering Antlers. Since that date, it has been another five hundred years, in which time the Firbolgs have come to know their small corner of the world but made very little progress in the arcane or technological world, seemingly stuck to their traditions and ways.
Geography
The centre of the settlement is built about half a kilometre from the beaches of the Ocean, but a well-used path from it to the beach exists, partially due to the fishermen who live in between the two and work in either one, depending on the day. It is primarily focused on the line where the forest begins, where the ground also begins to elevate, slowly. East of the hamlet and their place of worship, one can spot a cliff, mostly made up of a dark stone, with some dirt on top of it, but nowhere near the edge overlooking the gulf.
Natural Resources
The Fjorners can acquire various types of wood from the edge of the forest they reside by, metal and a rare gem from three caves within a two to three day's journey to and from and meat, antlers and bones from the creatures and animals around them, as well as the fish from the nearby shores and a river about a day's hike from the hamlet.
