| The Village of Merrywick | |
| Leader | Allior Coyne and Dogo Ooder |
| Religion | Logosmas |
The hidden village of Merrywick is home to the ever-jolly HoHoHo Society and the penny-pinching HaHaHa Society, Halfling social organisations which live in a perpetual uneasy truce within neatly separated rows of gingerbread housing. Their differences are econocultural, a simmering struggle for Logosmas supremacy that divides the inhabitants of this otherwise idyllic township.
The snowbound path to Merrywick is revealed via the ice-clad cliffs above Actar only during the Logosmas season. It is difficult to enter the yuletide enclave elsewise; a subtle barrier of holiday time-space magic seems to shield it from everyday incursion.

Flora and Fauna
Merrywick's primary flora and fauna appear to be imported, though it is difficult to determine due to the permanent snowfall that seems to cloak the community. Its hills and valley are dotted by wintry fir and pine, fragrant mistletoe, fresh holly, and other botanical specimens of Logosmastide. Animals include the ever-present domesticated goats of halfling fame and reindeer and the occasional donkey.
