Minor Settlements

Fort Braydon: An old fortress dating from the days before the Marchers, when the Brass Coast kept watch against the barbarians and the Feni. The recent barbarian incursions have led to the the rebuilding of its walls and strengthening of its defenses.

Briante: Known for the rich open cast mines around the Briante valley, this is now home for a number of displaced Navarri steadings, pushed out of Liathaven by the barbarian incursions.

Damata: A trading centre for the surrounding peaks, where rich deposits of Oricalchum are still found, Damata is famed for its walls. Every metre is covered in finely calligraphed script, recording stories that have been told amongst the Freeborn for generations, each story different. One day, they say, there will be no more room for writing, and then the town will perish, its life written. In the meantime, troubadors and scops travel for some distance to read the walls.

Nestor’s Bounty: As with Briante, well-known for its mines, particularly precious stones and tempest jade. Named for a scrivener who made a vast fortune writing contracts for the sale of rich claims found in the hills.

Rojota: Sunk into a natural depression in the rock-slopes that mark the southern limits of the Kahraman mountains. It’s surrounded by goat-farming land, a hard place to scratch a living. Its fame is for a peculiar method of foretelling the future. Precious - for the Brass Coast - scraps of wood are left to weather in dust blown by the Delés and interpreted by sutannir skilled in such matters.

The Gilded Peak: The mountain that separates the valley of Briante and the ancient stronghold of Fort Braydon bears a most peculiar summit, which at sunset or dawn gleams as if the rock is made of gold. The mountain is treacherous, and no-one has yet achieved it, although many have tried. “Climbing the Gilded Peak” has passed into local parlance as a phrase meaning “a fool’s dream”.
