This humble village of fourteen families in a bend of Longcrook Creek is now thriving after being freed from the dark cloud of tyranny in 1130. These humble farmers raise mostly goats and grain. The suspicious paucity of adult men left in the village, as Ricketts himself just passed his eighteenth winter, was solved when Reeve Angus slew a witch near the village and liberated then men who had been transformed into goats.
The Templar Sean the Irish bastard has been appointed elder and protector of the village, and had stationed 3 templar sergeants here, but they were recently slain on an expedition westward.
Population: 68
Hides under Cultivation/Grazing: 10
Militia: 10.
There are further abandoned hides across the wide, shallow creek to the North that could make settling unprepared immigrants a bit cheaper. These hides were cultivated by pit spawn created to serve the Lesserton Witch. Since her death, all the demon spawn have fled and the fields lay fallow and dormant while the plows and granaries stand unused.
The Lesserton Witch also left an underground cave complex with elements that appear to be built by both Atlantean and pre-Atlantean design. It features a cave for growing Nettle Moss, a cavern protected by Land Wights filled with flesh-consuming purple mushrooms, and a final crumbling chamber that features an Elementary Enchanter's Furnace. It can be reached directly from the surface by a straight drop through a sinkhole that resides in a cave.
