Ashrak
Ashrak is a broad pastureland on the coast next to the Flow Peninsula. It is far from any urban centre and largely undeveloped. Between the few small villages and tribal camps are untouched plains and the population is very small compared to the space available to them. The peasantry are active in herding and farming, but not much else. There is not yet an established culture. The language slightly changes from top to bottom and from east to west but only in certain pronunciations. And the people are unremarkable.

Ashrak was lost to roguery after the Plague rampantly reduced Aquilegia later in 9 YD. Civilization and Noble order returned to Ashrak in Spring 16 YD when the Morek Empire conquered the region and reinstated Lord Bowie as Count.
