Harsh Winds and Calm Lands
Under Aarnum I and his successors, the Orcs were driven out of the region of the present Kingdom towards the south. They are now housed in the protected settlements of Khorad-Nur and Normad-Nur and in the small towns of Kashari and Aish-Jadar. The Orc's cattle breeding ability is distinctly lacking, but in the few oases of the desert there is another commodity that purchases their survival when they meet the hordes and which they also sell to the rich and beautiful for gold and precious stones: cocoa. The smuggling of this product is forbidden in the Kingdom. And so in the oasis of Ahil-Tar and in Prince Valor's border fortress of Urkenburgh (formerly Orcenburh, also known as Uruk-Nar), the imperial troops have taken over an old stronghold from the time of Alexor I, not only for defense against the Orcs and Ogres, but also against smugglers and greedy settlers intent on trying their luck here. According to rumors, the far southeast is said to stretch far beyond the Orc region and to be bordered by the icy plateaus where only the most hideous monsters live. Nevertheless, it is said that the Orcs have driven tunnels into the mountain ranges that separate the Dragon lands from the desert and are building underground fortresses.
