One of the older Springdale regions, Rye has subsequently been part of Springdale, Morek, the Libero Empire, and presently flies the banner of the Kingdom Of Arnor.
Heavily rural, it mainly exports arable goods such as wheat and vegetables.
One of the region's main features is Rye's Rock, a large hill ringed with several smaller mounds, which is visible for miles around. The commanding position of The Rock has traditionally housed the Manor of the local Lord although in 1016 a new Shell Keep was raised by Count Philip De Broase, suitable for a garrison of forty men and the lord's household and retinue, and the former Manor was abandoned.
The mounds around The Rock contain a network of ancient barrows and deeper tunnels that lead further underground. Scholars are unsure as to the exact date these barrows were erected but it is generally accepted that they pre-date the realm of Old Springdale and are a remnant of Dwilight's antiquity. Subsequently, the local religious and political significance of The Rock is clear even if the exact history remains unknown.
