Details
Verainville is located in the middle between the rivers and the South Downs Hills. The village has plenty of good farmland for the growing of Corn, Maize and Wheat.
This village had around a company and a half of the demobbed Eltrandorian Military as the initial settlers and their wives and family (women and children) arrived in mid summer 808 which made the village a home rather than an outpost.
The village comprises men from 'The Basemen', 'The Tunnel Rats', 'The Sappers', 'The Crimson Swords' and 'The Black Widows', all units of the Eltrandorian army.
The village is part of Verain Manor with the Lord of the manor being Fergus de la Verain (retired Lt Col) who has settled here in South Lending with a number of his men. Fergus is a mountain man, coming from the northern highlands of Eltrandor and has chosen to settle near the mountains south of South Lending. Fergus is a skilled miner specialising in quarrying stone and has recognized the rocks nearby as being good quality and perhaps valuable - ceratinly in building quality structires at least..
The Verain Manor has been built on the ruins of a previous manor and is a well designed and easily defensible set of buildings with deep foundations and large/thick walls.
The reeve of Verainville is Gareth de Stein (ex Sergeant Major), a man of few words but deep thoughts. Gareth has the ability to quickly size up issues and make judgements for the good of all, through his innate sense of fair play, honesty and common sense
