Caerdrys

Caerdrys is a small Aedwinian fief to the northwest of the capital region. The fief is mostly mountainous, being on the border between Aedwin and Hallengard. One of the more notable landmarks of the town is the large cathedral built after the town’s founding. The area and town are named after the castle which presides over it, meaning ‘the castle of Idris’.
The castle has its roots in the year 22 BCE, where the land was given to a man named Idris White-Eye. Idris was a close friend of Oswald Findlaigh’s father, Frederick. He began construction of a castle, along with a mine to gather the stone to build it. Idris would however pass away before the castle finished its construction, passing the fief to his son Trahaearn.
Trahaearn would be affected by the Lauch arrival and would soon come to convert to Andophy. He declared that a cathedral would be built in addition to the castle. Soon, a town sprouted up at the base of the castle, which would be named Caerdrys. When the War of Daggers broke out, Trahaearn went to Lauchette with some of the fief’s troops, leaving the castle to Llywelyn, his son.
Llywelyn would almost immediately find himself surrounded by rebels that planned to break off from the Empire. Without much choice, he surrendered and agreed to be on their side. During the signing of peace, the fief would be considered part of Aedwin. News would eventually arrive that Trahaearn had died, leaving Llywelyn as the lord of his new Aedwinian fief.
