The Cathedral at Andasrael Ford (Patreon)
Content
There was once a cathedral near the small ford a few miles north of where the Sunny Run joins the White Foam River. A small hill between the cathedral and the Sunny Run became home to “support businesses” for pilgrims and clergy and gradually this became the small town of Andasrael Ford. The Andasrael Cathedral burned down in the night in a mighty firestorm thirty years ago, leaving the ford and town with the name and a large field of scorched and blackened stone.
Since the night of the fire, things have felt less and less safe here, and the village has gone through a few changes over the decades. Many of the old buildings were put to the torch during a couple of years of intense raiding until the raiders were finally dispatched by the city troops – and the town was rebuilt in a very “regular” north/south orientation along with the addition of a palisade wall along the crest of the hill. Farmers live within the walls and venture to their fields during the days, leaving the area outside the village to the druid in the southwest, the ruins of the cathedral to the east, and the town graveyard to the north.
This map was drawn for an upcoming adventure written by Pauli Kidd for Goblinoid Games’ second edition of Labyrinth Lord (coming soon). Of course, Pauli has their own material for the adventure – what I’ve written above is just my quick take on the environment based on the map itself, not the text from the adventure.
