==Introduction==
LOCATION: Kingdom of [[Ibanvaal]]<br>
Holder: Erjolafsen
Tribute: Dagenborg
Population: 373
Rydaen lies between Bilun to the northeast and Enkoelheim to the southwest.
Rydaen owes tribute to clan Dagen of Bilun.

In 796, clan Erjolafsen participated in the Sack of Kirkul. The
raid was highly profitable, but Kiartan was killed in the initial
assault. Kiartan was succeeded by his brother Weinam, who
enthusiastically gathered his clansmen in 798 for another attempt
at Kirkul. Sadly, none that left for Kirkul that spring returned.
Weinam was succeeded by Steinn, Kiartanâ€™s son, who lost the
dicing to determine which of the clan would remain in Rydaen to
tend to the clanâ€™s holding. Since that time, Steinn has maintained
his holding, but still yearns for adventure and the sea.
He has commissioned the building of a warboat by Vesli, the
local shipwright, but Steinn â€˜s desire for perfection combined
with Vesliâ€™s limited skills have slowed progress to a crawl.
In addition, Steinn maintains three Huscarls and a priest of Thor
for religious duties.
==Economics==
In Rydaen, the Ivinians either live near the thran atop a hill or in
a small fishing village near the shore.

As with other settlements, the inner / outer field system of land
use is practiced. Barley, oats and hay are grown in the fields,
while most of the pastures are used to graze cattle and a few
sheep.

[[Clan Erjolafsen]] maintains a Knarr and three Faerings for fishing
and transport.

====1. Jarlâ€™s Longhouse (Steinn Erjolafsen)====
This traditional Ivinian longhouse is the residence of the jarl and
his immediate family. Steinn has three wives, three daughters,
three sons. His eldest daughter, Thorgerth, is a comely young woman (b 794)
likely to draw a fine brideprice. In addition, the priest of Thor,
Sturla, resides in the attached shrine.
====2. Smithy (Beinir Erjolafsen)====
Quality: *** Prices: High
Beinir is a slightly above average smith who is not at all above
overcharging for services since he knows perfectly well there is
no alternative for a couple of leagues. He shares the smithy with
Bryan Cyeen, a weapon crafter hired by Steinn to ensure the
clanâ€™s weapons are in good repair. Andry [6] is Beinirâ€™s younger
brother.
====3. Servantâ€™s Residence====
This building is used for storage and is the residence of clan
Erjolafsenâ€™s thralls and huscarls. The huscarls are Adelph, Jereld
and Jaris, all young men too young to participate in the Mandeb
Strait disaster.
The thralls are the family of Sushil Liddell. Sushil Liddell was a
scribe from Kirkul who was caught outside the city walls during
the Sack of Kirkul. His wife Kolfinna is a local thrall given to
Sushil for his excellent service keeping the books. During the
last couple of years, Sushil has been afflicted by severe arthritis,
and his ability to write has deteriorated badly. Sushil has become
concerned for his familyâ€™s future if he is no longer of particular
use to Steinn.
