Tabost

Description

With rocky terrain, high mountains, empty deserts and half destroyed roads, Tabost it not a favorable place to live in, Tabost seams like the worst place to live in, but on the other hand, the local peasants know the region like the back of their hands which gives them an advantage against other people in the region, while most of them are nice, some aren't too welcoming to new visitors.

Tabost is a region of dubious repute among peasants, known as a death trap for any who try to settle in the region, which makes a portion of the population immigrate to Ashforth looking for a better life , Tabost has changed hands many times over the past few years - the brutality of the take overs completely obliterating what was once a fairly tranquil and productive region. Trees which once dotted the landscape had long been cut down to create engines of war and the only thing left of many villages is ash, burnt down during one invasion or another.

The peasantry build their huts upon hills and even the smallest village has at least a community sentry tower made of logs. The larger towns are enclosed by a motte and bailey while the nobility of the region keep themselves secluded in large castles. Unfortunately, in these desperate times, desperate measures have become the primary occupation of more than a few peasants.

Those with a more honorable way of living try and farm. The primary way of living is actually based on the cottage system, where raw materials from Karbala City are transported to Tabost and distributed among the locals to be processed. The finished good is then bought by merchants and reshipped for a profit. While this is not the most economical way of conducting trade, it has allowed Tabost to maintain a theoretical gold economy surpassing most rural and woodland regions.
