The Duchy of Warthenstein
Warthenstein, like Orkhenwall, is a bulwark state preventing Orkhr invasion. As such, all towns worth drawing onto a map are surrounded by stout stone walls, and fortresses held by Knights of the Empire dot the peaks and hillsides along the frontier. Rangers scour the highlands seeking out incursion.
Rainer III Fürst zu Warthenstein is known to be a hard man more often seen in full armour astride his warhorse than engaged with the silly frippery of politics and diplomacy, which he leaves to his favoured daughter.
Warthenstein produces a large amount of timber and stone, which are shipped down the Sarim River to the Empire and beyond.
The Warthensteiner Mason’s Fellowship is highly prised throughout the Empire for its expertise in masonry, in particular in the building of fortifications.
