'''Adryn's Keep''' and the surrounding valley are home to a small feudal community led by the [[Lord Adryn]] and his wife, the [[Lady Adryn]]. The keep is set within a secluded valley in the [[Putoran Hills]], divided from the southern [[Zaphar River]] by thick forest, and surrounded by an immense stone wall.

It was not until 428 AF that the outside world learned of its existence, when a dying scout shared its location with a group of adventurers -- Iocun was the first to find it.

Though they dutifully accept their Lord's decree, many of the inhabitants retain a high level of distrust for visitors to their sheltered lands. Adventurers moving through Adryn's Keep should not be surprised to meet with suspicion, and occasionally even hostility. | Though they dutifully accept their Lord's decree, many of the inhabitants retain a high level of distrust for visitors to their sheltered lands.
