Talgar

Talgar, formerly a kingdom and now a margraviate of Kovir and Poviss, lies at the foot of the Dragon Mountains in the Far North. It has been the homeland to several members of the House of Thyssen since Godamba Thaess'en was knighted by its contemporaneous king.
Due to the strong local position of the house's branches, Talgar became a shelter to the young former Prince Esterad Thyssen and a large number of exiles still loyal to him after the events of the Secession of Poviss, and the following events which led to the collapse of the East March. During this time the country was ruled by Lady Bernika who took power after escaping from a mage tower in which she was imprisoned due to the suspicions of being afflicted with the Curse of the Black Sun. Her reign was rather strict - rumor had it that the most seen part of the Talgarian landscape during that period were the gallows.It is worth noting that the source of this rumor was the mage Stregobor. As an adherent of King Idi, he held Esterad's shelterers in rather less than warm regard.
In the far future, the weather changed enough that northern regions, like Talgar, Caingorn, and Kaedwen, were no longer able to grow certain types of produce due to the colder climate.
