Shinnen Purlieus

Description

The March of Shinnen Purlieus cradles the westernmost Lurian city of Shinnen, in the uncivilised reaches of the Euschean coast. Overgrown farmlands and wheat fields stretch off towards the timid foothills of the south, the wilderness between dotted with the ruinous skeletons of sandstone houses. The sparse, insular population enjoy their distance from the heavy hand of returning imperial law, but suffer at the infrequent patrols that would otherwise ward off the remnants of the once occupying infestations. The roads are gruesome, tangled veins of hoof-trodden earth, in dire need of security, but they keep the villages fed with travelling work-hands and journeymen as they rebuild, brick by brick. It is not uncommon on your walks to come across the victims of years of wilderness and banditry; abandoned carts and wagons, roadside graves, oak trees turned to communal gallows, and reeking wastelands from the battles between man and beast. However, the nearer you approach to the walls of Shinnen, the stronger the air of community is. There is commerce, traffic, and the youthful opportunity for hundreds of families seeking to establish new lives under the shielding warmth of the coastal city. Slowly, this vitality is pulsing throughout the land with a steady influx of hopeful people by land and sea.
