Morvay

Morvay is a Grand Barony within the Duchy of the Silvershire, and the Kingdom of Whytehold. It was once an independent nation, and often still acts very independently, despite having lost a portion of its territory and power, and having been vassalised by the Kingdom of Whytehold in 20.30.
The region is located in the north-west of Silvershire, it borders the Dominion of New Haven at the River Straza.
Morvay is one of the smallest regions in Silvershire, but also one of the most densely populated. Unlike other regions, Morvay does not rely on expansive fields and pastures for its income, instead Morvay's largest export is fruits and ciders, from their meticulously maintained orchards. Almost all of Tyrrus' apples, pears, cherries, and so on, come from this single region.
Morvay is also known for its powerful hunting birds, and master falconers. The warriors and mages of Morvay can use these as scouts, or even in battle.
Morvay's other claim to fame is the large amount of mages within the region, far more so than other regions of Silvershire, mostly due to their proximity to Old Haven, and their historical relations with the Dragonvale.
The House of Morvay have ruled the region since its foundation. The current head is the Grand Baron Cosimo Morvay, though since he is very young, most of the actual ruling is done by regents and advisors.
The regional capital of Morvay is Altavan.
== House Morvay ==
House Morvay is one of the oldest noble houses in Silvershire, having ruled the region for centuries. They have had a tumultuous history, often being the victim of larger neighbouring nations, but through it all they have stayed on top.
A consistency throughout the history of House Morvay is their patronage of mages, and their seeking of magical knowledge. Many of the mages of the Library of Thassalus come from Morvay.
House Morvay's sigil is a golden falcon upon a blue background. Their House motto is "Always Reach Higher"
