The Village of the Spring is a half-elven village in the Forest of Time's Repose in Erribathe.
Overview[edit | edit source]
The Village of the Spring is a half-Elven village in the Forest of Times Repose. People entering the village will feel that time passes differently there. People with mortal lifespans will feel the time just running by.[1]
Notably, Ceria Springwalker and her grandmother Leila lived in the village until Leila died and Ceria ran away.
Geography[edit | edit source]
It is a village in a forest.
History[edit | edit source]
It was "founded when a half-Elf found a spring and decided it was a good place to settle."[1]
Government[edit | edit source]
As most half-elves in the Village are self-sufficient and most things of common concern are taken care of by the community at large, there seems to be no day-to-day local government in place. Nonetheless, there are some hard rules that govern life in the village. For example, only a handful of people from outside the village are allowed to enter it and the merchant supplying them with outside goods comes every half-year on the dot.[1]
Military[edit | edit source]
The village does not have a standing military and probably doesn't need one due to its location within Erribathe. In times of war, they do contribute to Erribathe's military. But even without a standing military or militia a lot of the half-Elves inhabitants are old and probably high-level[1] underestimating any of them would be naïve. Additionally, Springwalkers are known to be a comparatively adventurous village of half-Elves.[2]
Economy[edit | edit source]
Most half-Elves in the village live self-sufficient. Every half-year a merchant enters the village to sell outside goods and to buy up some stocks of the local artisans and producers. Additionally, there is a town close to the village that the village can send goods to and order goods from.[1]
