The rural region of Ofengail holds greater importance than one would think at the first observation.
It is a unique region for it is the gateway region to Poitra, there is no other way to reach the walls of the might City. This offers double protection for those living there and an easier way to stop any invaders.
Also, Ofengail is the only viable route between the West and the East. The great bridge that spans over the banks of the Twillen river is an excellent defensive location. Whoever controls it has a great advantage over others, it is a fast shortcut, going either North or South to cross the river would take several days longer than through Ofengail.
