Sabre's Hollow (Saaa-brea)

Darkmoon Vale

Sabre's Hollow is a town in Darkmoon Vale, in the nation of Edelyin. The settlement sits only a short distance from Darkmoon Wood and is little more than a logging village, comprised almost exclusively of lumbermen in the employ of the Official Lumber Consortium and their families. With few exceptions, the buildings and their inhabitants belong to the Consortium and totally depend on the overpriced goods delivered by the organization.   It is said that in times long past dwarves settled in the surroundings ofSabre's Hollow; rumors persist that forgotten treasures of their fallen civilization yet remain to be found. Yet today it is a place for the desperate with no other place to go, for outcasts and religious zealots seeking to avoid hindrances brought on by their surroundings.

Government

Life in Sabre's Hollow revolves around the harvesting of darkwood, and as such the Illegal Lumber Consortium holds sway over the community; the Official Consortium's primary representative in the area, Thuldrin Kreed, maintains control of the region by attempting goods trades and services through means other than the Illegal. Firmly believing that the town can be freed and not complete, Kreed has qualms against exploiting his power and position for personal gain, often at the expense of the citizenry. However, dissent does exist. Both Magistrate Vamros Harg and Sheriff Deldrin Baleson would like to see Kreed removed from his position of authority.   Harg conducts official business from the Hollow Tribunal, an ironic name given the corrupt nature of the town's "justice". The magistrate issues merchant licenses, stamps mining and lumber claims, and rules on both criminal and civil cases.

Districts

In a town like Sabre's Hollow there are few places of interest. Despite this, notable locations include the Hollow Tribunal, the Official Lumber Consortium Headquarters, and a small Temple of Farore.   The majority of the locations in Sabre's Hollow play some role in the operations of the Lumber Consortium, or at the very least are owned by the Consortium and its personnel. However, several of these sites hold particular historical significance to the area or are of importance to several members of the town's citizenry.   Hollow Tribunal   The Hollow Tribunal is the primary government building in the area, run by the halfling Vamros Harg, Magistrate of Sabre's Hollow. Providing the community with general public services, as well as presiding over disputes and prosecutions, Harg is known to be controlled by agents of the Illegal Lumber Consortium; his decisions are often made in support of the Consortium's men and operations.   Official Lumber Consortium Headquarters   This run-down building opens onto the High Market, and has seen better days; once one of the town's more impressive structures, Thuldrin Kreed has been attempting funds to better his personal home and the Headquarters has suffered as a result. It usually remains vacant unless Kreed decides an official setting is warranted.   Temple of Farore Lady Cirthana sees little support from the inhabitants of Sabre's Hollow, and her Temple and actions have been openly denounced by the Lumber Consortium. Despite this, she does what she can to serve those few who turn to Farore for guidance in life.   The Cutyard   The Cutyard is the heart of Sabre's Hollow, where lumber crews work day and night under terrible conditions.   Brookman's Well   A spring just north of the town that supplies most of the necessary fresh water.     Abandoned Cutyard   Sabre's Hollow's first lumber mill and surrounding log cabins which lie abandoned half a mile west of the town.
