New page

The small Kingdom of Valeria sits south of the [[Valley of Six Barons]], reached through the [[Valley of Shards]]. It is named for its capital, a small walled city on the bank of the Valorous River , a tributary of the Rock River used by many traders trying to shorten the overland journey between the Northeast and the Scavenger Lands (avoiding [[Linowan]] piracy). Valeria’s economy is based primarily on rye agriculture supplemented with some mining in the north. Slavery is banned in the kingdom, as is begging... in prosperous times beggars were rounded up and taken to shelters where they could be fed by the generosity of the monarch, but the coffers for such gifts have been drained, and the local Royal Guard constables face fines if beggars are found in their districts… to avoid these, most constables gather the destitute at night, breaking their kneecaps and throwing them in the river.

Part of the reason for this transformation from generosity into casual cruelty came with a recent plague that afflicted the capital from RY763 to RY766, killing of a large swathe of the population. Districts afflicted have been burned to clear them, but have not yet been rebuilt.
