Some Strange Holy Country facts

Posted on October 9, 2021
  • There is a “tame” version of Aldrya worshiped in Esrolia as the Goddess of the Orchards? She’s worshiped through the Ernalda cult, but still present and revered.
  • The strangest livestock in the Holy Country has got to be the pig variant popularly called the “Sausage Loaf”. These are huge animals – weighing up to 500 kg but exceptionally calm, gentle, and even submissive – and are famed for their incredibly tasty meat.

A runner up for strangest food source is the giant sloth found in the forests of Heortland and Esrolia.

Does Esrolia even have many forests? The Old Woods are an Aldryami forest, and the dense woods extend Southeast of Asrelia’s Retreat. Much of the North March is lightly wooded.
