Barony of Vetur Noson

The Barony of Vetur Noson is located midway up the Slan Nyttig river, 

between Seewick on the coast and Winterstone in the hills.  

This barony was established, long ago, to mine the Kannos hills iron and nickel deposits. Although they were plentiful the mines eventually ran out. Thus the economy was reoriented to a more traditional one of agriculture. The mines were abandoned and eventually overgrown with the new Kannos Woods, creating the perfect habitat for the Grungan; a race of small Goblin-like cave dwelling creatures. Experts say they are a myth, but people believe they are real. Adventurers often go Grungan hunting in the old mines.

The Slan Nyttig River is both a blessing and a curse for the barony. The river regularly floods in spring most notably in the area downstream from the Tenner Bjon River. Thus homes tend to be built about a mile inland from the river; with a few exceptions placed on rocky hillocks.

The central area of the barony is owned directly by Baron Vetter; his castle being on the hill, overlooking the town of Pittkannot.  The town is larger than one may expect, owing to its heyday as home to a thousand minors in addition to the usual crafts peoples. In recent years several areas have become rundown and shady. It seems the Baron is allowing the brothels to become a major new industry.

The three large estates

AnnVann is the most important, having both a share of the River tax and monopoly on logging in the Allfor Woods. It also controls the main road to Seewick.

Equallin estate is well known for its horses, which often graze outside the borders. It also shares in the River tax and controls the secondary road to Seewick.

BroNos estate is large but not very profitable, being devoted to farming and sheep herding. However it has a sizable castle, built after the first conflict with Winterstone.

The lesser estates

There are 20 other estates in the barony making it very typical in terms of feudal arrangements. 

Both 19. Rogsdor and 20. Tollpoint are important because of their geography. Rogssdor controls the road to Norodor and the only bridge on the Slan Nittig. Tollpoint, as the name implies, exists to tax the river traffic coming down from Winterstone, to this end it has a solid castle.

Game note - 

In the quest to rescue the missing sister, most of the PCs crossed the Slan Nyttig river into estate 11, then rode north to meet the main road. They cut across the Nodgor river and set up their ambush at the point were the road crosses the Nodnos streem (not named on map)
