Oldlyn

Oldlyn is a large town within the Theridan Empire, in northern Paledia. Home to a relatively well-off agricultural community that is nearly 100% human, the town is well known for its proximity to heavy forests and mines for clay, metals and other minerals in the Oldlyn Peninsula, where the Wild Races work as slave labour.
When the Wild Revolt came out on the Oldlyn peninsula, fear gripped the town. In the Winter of year 250, Imperial era, the citizens worst nightmare came true. The Wild Races besieged their home, but not before Lord Danottalos Cettaric of Aldbourne had evacuated all women and children, armed citizen militias, and levied the troops. The refugees fled mainly to Aldbourne and the Imperial capital. The defensive efforts proved futile, however, and in the Battle of Oldlyn the town fell. The Wilds killed everyone, including the local count. Meanwhile, Imperial forces from surrounding areas began to gather for a counter-attack.
