I had come up here with a small **Swadian** force, but they were caught by the **Rhodoks** in the woods and their horsemen cut down amid the trees. I fled and found shelter up in the high valleys, in the arms of the comeliest cowherd you ever saw. She took me to a cave near the high pastures, and would bring me cheese and berries, and tell me the tales from the hills -- **of playful goat-men who guide lost animals back to their flocks, or of ghostly huntsmen who ride the winds, chasing stormclouds.** Such rustics they are!

The village sits near a deposit of salt, and salt springs occasionally bubble to the surface, feeding the **legend that this was once a gateway to a haunted underground sea**.
