The lands of Kitheria, peaceful, long settled and directly controlled by the court of Evendarr. It is know as the "Breadbasket of Evendarr"

Kitheria- Kitheria has the largest population per acreage in the kingdom with a staggering 8.5 people per square mile! One rarely travels without seeing another farmhouse or village on the horizon.

    Although there are no large cities the size of Evendarr, there are a few towns that are wonderful to visit.  Ithiel, the capital city of the barony of Lorin is an artist’ paradise, and despite what they may tell you about Evendarr, this is the place to be if you are an up and coming sculptor or painter. Many alumni of this city have moved up to Evendarr after being discovered and adopted by royal houses. Primarily this is due to the Kitheria School of Art, at which many talented people from all over Evendarr enroll. ( This is the school from which Gerin Hrestri graduated!)

    The gorgeous seaside port of Pym in the barony of Zyr has one of the most unusual restaurants I have ever visited, “The Dolphin’s Crest”. The dining room is on a pier, and the kitchen is actually located in the ocean! This is because the establishment is owned and operated by a family of mer-people. Although other land based races do the actual serving, the cooks are all mer.  Not surprisingly, seafood is the main (and only) entree.

    Zyr also has some of the largest salt mines in Evendarr, and this provides the locals with a healthy economy. All is not perfect, however. (Is it ever?) There is reason to be wary. A peasants revolution was prevented here in 588 when it was discovered that a group calling itself “the Fist” was behind a baronial conspiracy to have a certain noble kidnapped and obliterated, and replaced with his necromancer son. Although The Fist was exposed and many of its members caught, there is still the occasional midnight assassination accompanied by a fist in a triangle symbol, drawn in the victim’s blood.
