Travels Through the Kingdom by Thelus Duron :: Rindol Field

Rindol Field, so named for its original settlers, Jessip and Mara Rindol, is not overly large. Some would describe it as a modest settlement. It is certainly nothing like the busy streets of New Targonor. Most of its inhabitants live on small farms surrounding the city proper. However there are those mainly craftsman, who prefer to live closer to the center of town.

The quaint houses and cottages are constructed of wood or light stone. Natural roofs are not an uncommon sight as many of the houses are dug into the hillsides. The feeling that strikes one most when visiting the settlement is the warmth and familiarity.1

Upon my visit to Rindol Field, I was struck by how sociable and jovial the Halflings are. I was invited to supper, and then to stay the night, by one family. After a delightful meal, a round of story telling ensued. I heard many enjoyable tales including one about a farmer, Halp Grimbo, and his battle with a giant ant. I even contributed my own story as well to the gathering. However, I was unprepared for the barrage of questions I received after the telling. Everything from my heritage, the streets of New Targonor, the lands I have visited previously, and the contents of my knapsack were subjects of many queries. The people of Rindol Field are certainly an inquisitive bunch.2

I came upon a most impressive sight near Rindol Field. A massive dam, built of worked stone and designed by the denizens of Bordinar's Cleft, helps to regulate the seasonal flooding and allows the Halfling farmers, further downstream, to work their fields with suitable irrigation. 3
