The Barony of Doven
A small Barony loosely part of Rehai Empire.
The Ruling family is the Dovans, descended from the paladin Zehur Dovan, who swore to honor, and pay tithes to in exchange for becoming of one of the Six Free Cities. The main city, J'harn, is built around Stone Side. Stone Side is the temple that Zehur founded, and is headed by a Priest from the Dovan line. J'harn is located in a mountain pass, making most of its income off mining and some trade. However its place on the border of Rehai leads to attacks by dragons, bandits and giants. A handful of farming villages supply the town with food.
History
The Barony was formally founded during the creation of The Six Free Cities, with J'harn being one of the free cities. While before J'harn and the surrounding lands where unaffiliated with Rehai, growing presser from both Kel Oth and Rehai forced the hand of the Dovan family. Even though Kel Oth offered much better terms then Rehai during the negotiations, The Dovans chose Rehai for it would have been closer to the choice that Zehur Dovan would have made.
