Gortbaun

Gortbaun is a village in the south-east of Elderfall close to the base of the Peaks of the Vale.

Description
A settlement whose focus is on agriculture, the villagers of Gortbaun are devout worshippers of the pagan goddess of the earth, Danu. Outside of the village is a set of burial mounds dedicated to the elders of their settlement and a chapel built upon hallowed ground. In recent years, the village has been under the rule of a malevolent Dao by the name of Sadanna al-Baahish.

Since the arrival of adventurers of Freehearth, the Dao has fled and left the position of Elder open. It was also the home of a powerful druid known as Wealda, whom consequently gave her life to transform into a blight golem to protect the chapel from any foul creatures wishing to prey upon the shrine and the treasures within.
