common to offer a cup of fresh milk or a loaf of bread as a sign of respect for her role as the nurturer of all things her name is frequently invoked during weddings to ensure a fruitful and peaceful marriage unlike her daughter malfin who is celebrated during the dark of the moon the mother is often thanked during the height of the day when the sun created by her daughter aeolf warms the life she created the mysteries of the mother those initiated into the higher mysteries of the mother focus on the sacred act of creation and the maintenance of the world s original harmony they study the ancient sagas of the first days to understand how the mother used her divine will to shape reality from her dreams initiates are often skilled in healing arts that go beyond simple medicine using their connection to her life giving power to mend deep wounds they also act as senior arbiters in social disagreements using the mother s affinity for harmony to bring people back into a state of peace many high grade initiates choose a life of service to the community mirroring the mother s own care for her children relationships people the father her consort and the god with whom she

collects intelligence on what s moving along the great east road he is a practitioner of the opener of the ways affinity a divine gift that allows him to excel in scouting hunting and the location of hidden paths rolf represents the stable but independent middle tier of the heroic class he is a man whose loyalty is governed by contracts and honour rather than ideology rolf has a linguistic quirk he consistently speaks of himself in the third person using phrases such as this wolf is known as rolf or this wolf requires payment this behaviour is a direct manifestation of his freki heritage which emphasizes the dissolution of the individual ego in favour of pack solidarity even though he is currently an outcast from his original pack his speech patterns reflect a permanent psychological attachment to the communal ideals of the wolf god description born during the long winter of 694 am rolf possesses a divine bloodline 13 freki that grants him a life multiplier of 1 56 while his chronological age is 80 he maintains the physical vitality and apparent age of a man in his early fifties physically he is characterized by striking orange eyes a common trait among those of the wolf bloodline and a head of hair and full beard that have turned grey with age his build is notably muscled but wiry optimized for the physical demands of long distance overland travel and the quick reflexes required of a rogue attire rolf s clothing is designed for the pragmatic requirements of a life spent on the trade routes of the continent of osnines he typically wears a durable travel doublet made of heavy linen canvas reinforced at the stress points with treated leather to withstand the rigours of the trail beneath this he wears an unbleached linen shirt and woollen hose often in earth tones or dark blues to maintain an inconspicuous profile given his bledalense origins his gear incorporates elements of northern tailoring such as a heavy cloak for the long winter moons and thick soled boots suitable for both the muddy swathes of the riggin dale and the few paved sections of the great east road favoured possessions as an opener of the ways rolf carries specialised equipment that complements his divine talents travel ledger a well worn book where he records contracts and travel data reflecting his role as an occasional merchant scouting dagger a balanced blade

terminals of breite and the various inns along the way healing pouches small bags containing dried herbs and medicinals used to open the way for recovery in accordance with freki s healing affinity amulet he carries an amulet dedicated to freki made of bone to amplify his scouting senses and protect him from the mental geasa used by rivals like rojden personal life rolf s is an outcast from his pack while the specific circumstances of this separation are not recorded in the book of heroes his continued adherence to the wolf god s philosophy suggests that the exile was not a rejection of faith but perhaps a consequence of his choice to serve as a sometime spy for southern interests or the board of trade rolf s presence in wolfburg indicates a preference for the mercantile stability of the electorate over the visceral violence of the northern fjords he has spent decades cultivating a reputation for pragmatic honesty he is a man who stays bought until a contract is fulfilled making him a highly valued asset for those who require reliable intelligence without the complications of ideological zeal relationships people freki his divine ancestor and the source of his opener of the

jurisdiction head office personnel key assets trade authority intelligence kingdom of zushonia kronstadt 50 80 estimated numbered warehouses packet ships summary the board of trade dry hook is the regional administrative and commercial hub for the skyssian board of trade within the kingdom of zushonia sited at the mouth of the volatile river wackle it serves as the principal interface between zushonian riverine commerce and the skyssian deep sea merchant fleet the organisation provides an anchor point for skyssian interests managing the export of agricultural surplus while coordinating a vast intelligence network that monitors local circumstances to maintain northern maritime hegemony description physical infrastructure and facilities in accordance with the high volume of traffic moving through the wackle delta the board of trade maintains two distinct facilities within the city of dry hook main office located immediately to the south of the west dock this building serves as the administrative heart of the mission it follows the state standard for bot architecture being painted a distinctive bright blue and flying the green ship flag this site includes specialized warehouses and dormitories to house stationary clerks and transient messengers sea gate outpost a secondary facility situated at the corner of the old market near the sea gate this outpost is positioned to monitor the entry and exit of hulls and to provide immediate customs services to mariners as they come ashore logistical operations and the kit system the dry hook mission is a vital link in the global skyssian maintenance network to ensure that the fleet of merchantmen and coastal cogs remains operational despite the hazards of the wackle delta such as submerged trees and shifting silt the bot uses its numbered warehouse system these facilities store standardised pre fabricated components to enable swift repairs this allows vessels that suffer damage to their masts or rigging to be repaired in two to three days through modular swaps rather than the weeks required for bespoke artisanal repairs estimated team scale the board of trade detachment in dry hook needs to be sufficient to operate its two separate facilities the main office south of the west dock and the secondary outpost near the sea gate at the old market the permanent team is comprised of 50 personnel with up to 30 extra during seasonal surges this personnel count would be divided into several specialised cadres customs and factors 25 surging to 35 tasked with the scrupulous collection of trade data and the enforcement of standardisation in weights and measures used by skyssian merchants intelligence and clerical staff 15 surging to 25 responsible for collating trend data on commodity

merchants routinely carry despatches ensuring dry hook remains synchronised with kronstadt despite the 780 mile distance security 10 local security and sometimes roving special agents from the department of resolutions who operate undercover to prevent political or military disruptions from interrupting the flow of trade intelligence collection and dissemination the primary function of the dry hook team is the collection of trend data regarding the zushonian agricultural exports and their more varied import demand data agents monitor the production of grain cured meats and dried fruits in the 11 provinces allowing skyssian merchants to plan their purchases at the peak of the market cycle message redundancy to overcome the 780 mile distance to kronstadt the office uses a high redundancy protocol all critical despatches are duplicated and carried by skyssian merchants as part of their regular travel fast packets for urgent diplomatic or commercial intelligence the bot coordinates with the skyssian navy to use fast packet ships that can outpace standard cargo vessels security resolutions hidden within the security structure of the dry hook office is a small contingent from the department of resolutions this clandestine unit is comprised of special agents tasked with resolving political or military disruptions that threaten trade stability these agents operate under cover and are authorised to use other methods to protect prosperity however recent intelligence suggests that renegade elements associated with rojden have attempted to subvert local

is a major waterway on the continent of osnines forming the international border between the kingdom of berenicia and the kingdom of zushonia it flows through the wide and fertile fruitbar plain eventually emptying into the okkar sea the river is notorious for its unpredictable nature frequently changing its course and flooding the surrounding lowlands it is a vital artery for the transport of agricultural surplus specifically grain cured meats and dried fruits which are moved via specialised flat bottomed barges description hydrology and volatility the wackle is characterised by its meandering path and unstable banks following heavy rains the river possesses enough force to burst its banks and divert its entire course sometimes moving around whole towns within a single season this geographic instability occurs roughly every decade and has historically been a source of border disputes between neighbouring states the river bed is prone to rapid siltation creating shifting channels that require constant maintenance and dredging to remain navigable for commercial traffic hydraulic engineering managing the wackle is a central component of zushonian civil engineering communities along the river work together to build extensive systems of canals earth banks and dykes a unique method of flood control involves keeping agricultural fields lower than the surrounding farmsteads and towns this creates a controlled flood zone that enhances soil fertility while protecting human settlements at the river s mouth the people of dry hook have completed massive engineering projects to tame the delta the tree dam a historical project where wooden posts were driven into the river bed and whole trees were floated down to create a barrier this dam traps sediment and rubbish to form stable reclaimed land willow trees were later planted on top of the dam to provide additional strength the oyster fence a reef like structure built from wicker baskets filled with cockle and oyster shells this fence calms coastal waves and encourages the formation of beaches further protecting the river mouth from erosion navigation and trade the river is the primary interface between the interior agricultural heartlands...
