Reavers of Harkenwold
Harkenwold is a small barony in the southeast reach of the Nentir Vale. Several tiny hamlets and a number of steadings (isolated farms) are scattered across the broad dale of the White River. The great Harken Forest surrounds the realm, isolating it from the lands nearby. In better times. this quiet backwater contently avoids major trouble.
The characters are native to the town of Fallcrest, a few days west of Harkenwold. Lord Warden Markelhay, ruler of Fallcrest, hears that mercenaries have taken over Harkenwold and decides to send Baron Stockmer help. He summons the heroes to his keep and commissions them to go to Harkenwold, work to defeat the Iron Circle, and restore the baron to his throne.
At present, Iron Circle mercenaries are plundering the land. Baron Stockmer, the rightful lord, is a prisoner in his own keep, and a villainous lord named Nazin Redthorn rules in his place. The Harkenwold folk are down to their last hope-that brave heroes will answer their calls for help and break the Iron Circle.
