A Geographical History of Thestra

From the Great Library of New Targonor

For as far back as anyone can remember, trolls have sprung forth from the swamps of Thestra. While it has proven impossible to eliminate the trolls altogether, great efforts have been made to contain them. Recently, however, these efforts have proven most dangerous and less than completely successful.1

North of the river Beranid, at the base of the foothills, lies what remains of Targonor. The structures here have all been burned down or toppled. The stone and wood walls are all that remain standing since the invaders swept through decades ago. Only a handful of attempts have been made to liberate the fallen city. They have all failed dismally.2

Battlebrine Lake lies between the Beranid Downs and the Elven Forest. The lake was named in memoriam of the great orc - goblin wars, as the land bordering it was an area of intense conflict. During these battles the Hammerhome River, which flows out of the forest and feeds the lake, was said to have turned a muddy red from the carnage.3
