October is crazy busy for all of us. But...in the meantime, here is something I sent to the players:     Ghol Avalar    The Kingdom of Ghol Avalar is located in the southwestern corner of the Innerlands. Its western border is defined by the Longback Mountains and its southern border is contiguous with the Great Forest. On the east, Ghol Avalar shares a border with Ulstenland. Its northern shores are on The Fathoms.  In the ancient speech of the West, Ghol Avalar means land of the owls. The country has a long history of proud warriors and valiant knights. The people are proud of their martial ancestry. Alone among the countries of the Innerlands, Ghol Avalar was never conquered by the Empire of the Sea. In fact, Avalarians proudly tell the story of the Great Starvation, when every able bodied farmer had joined the King’s Army to push the Imperial Troops from the shores and left The Fathoms bloody for ten years.  The land is currently ruled by His Majesty Broderick Blackmane, Owl King, and Lord Protector of The Fathoms. The Blackmane dynasty has been in power for hundreds of years and has provided stability and inspired leadership. King Blackmane rules from Keltis Siddig and is on friendly terms with the dwarven kingdom of Kurgish-Muhr and the elven courts that roam the Great Forest. The strongest symbol of Ghol Avalar is the Owlknights. They are an elite force of champions and adventurers that keep the peace.  The worship of the Progenitors is the official sanctioned religion. The Allfather and the three Mothers have temples in every city and town and even most villages have some sort of shrine to the creators of the world. But cults and mystery religions can also be found throughout Ghol Avalar. Other than the Four, the most popular gods include Corellon, Moradin, and Poseidon. There have been sinister rumors of increased activity from the evil worshippers of Orcus and Tharizdun.  Currently the armies of the Owl Lands have been busy protecting against Imperial raids in Ulstenland. The navy has, as always, its hands busy with pirates and corsairs. The newest and most concerning threat is the war in the Westlands. The demonic hordes of Ghol Vartcha, commanded by the dread lich Xog-Uthu lay siege to the Raven King in the fortress-city of Torvalvar. King Broderick knows only a short stretch of mountains separate him from the malicious armies of the Vulture Lands.</blockquote>
