Green's Fork

 The noble, by title only, Graisse family of Greens Fork. They make their home in a magnificent mansion that from a large hill overlooks the entirety of Greens Fork. The Graisse family has never found themselves suffering. Even during times of great depression, Lord Graisse makes sure that Hightop comes to suffer long before his family does. The juxtaposition of the lavish mansion surrounded by a sea of dilapidated shacks is at times so unimaginable that one cannot help but to burst out laughing at the very sight of it's ridiculousness.



 Through years of war, Lord Graisse has driven Hightop from a land of beauty to a land of impoverishment and suffering. Like a tick at the neck of a magnificent horse, Lord Graisse slowly sucked the life out of Greens Fork drop by drop. The worst things became in the region the more he demanded. When war came Lord Graisse would raise every able bodied man for battle. Unlike the other lords of the realm, Graisse has always been an inexperienced commander. He has been known to throw money and resources at problems no matter the cost. This has led to an enormous decrease in the available citizenry in Greens Fork. The majority of those who live full time in Greens Fork, aside from the bandits, are old men and women. On top of this there is a epidemic of orphans in the city. One cannot travel the streets without finding themselves the victim of a pick pocketing.



 Where the city of Greens Fork now sits is the same location where the great Argorian city of Urrindar once sat. It sat upon a a fork in a key river in the region that served as a primary mode of transport for trade and for military purposes. For some time Greens Fork prospered from the trade. Today this is not the case as the majority of merchants avoid Greens Fork at all cost. The only coin to find in the city are in the coffers of Lord Graisse, and the only thing that most merchants find in the city is a blade between their ribs. The reality of the city is one that was created entirely at the hands of Lord Graisse. To this day he still saps what he can from the city and uses it for his own survival. He remains locked inside his mansion armed with a retinue of guards and servants to keep him alive and happy.



 Like the other cities in the Ebyrron valley, Green’s Fork worships the god Balorn. They pray daily that he will rescue them from the depths of their suffering, but every day they hear nothing.
