 ===Geography===
-The northern end of the [[Evesque Valley]] shows sparse population, yet many of Ghyll's events center around the valley. We get the feeling that the Valley is an important place, but that it is generally still quite rural with many plantations and forests: since it is in an earthquake zone, and suffers from many natural lightning storms, this may explain the lack of a sizeable population. The existence of [[Besq Boats]], made from trees in [[Evesque Valley]] plantations, indicates that there must be a body of water close to the [[Evesque Valley]]. Though this may be the seven lakes alluded to in one entry, the fact that there is maritime warfare suggests a wider watery expanse. We're starting to hear about many more Ghyll lands--e.g. the Eastern Province of the Dulalian Empire, Bute, and Glossfordshire--whose relation to Folktown, the Evesque Valley, and even one another are currently unknown. We now know that Ghyll has more than one moon.
