Hollenvik

A village of about six hundred people in the the northern part of the barony of Udvjor in Sormark fallen on hard times after their Thane died and the deed disappeared. Entering town it is clear the bridge that crosses stream is in disrepair. The corn fields look poorly, the squash and beans have hardly grown, the buildings look pretty rundown.

When the party arrived with the deed they soon learned that three families (Nergaard, Stahl, and Ternheim) divided the village and worked against each other at every turn. The village used to be owned by Thane Aesa Juulbro who died 27 years ago after eating something that was ‘off’. Her mansion burned down a month later, the ruin is still there.

Our adventurers fixed a number of problems in the village and then lead the defense against a wolf-pack. They left Richar Moerin behind to run the village till a more permanent solution could be found.

The others then journey to the Udvjor Gardyl, using a map given to them by the General Store owner, Ida Egnell.

The problems

There is no one to adjudicate as none of the three families will trust any of the others.

Nergaards keep throwing rocks in the stream cause too much water is bad for their corn (“it’s not a gods-damned rice field”) but this way everyone else gets too little.

Stahls run the only forge in town and deliver shoddy work at best to the others.

Ternheims run the only mill and they deliver too little cornmeal for the amount of corn milled.

Two members of the Stahl family have become very ill and no one has been able to cure them.

Wolves have been getting close, snatching some chickens. (There used to be nightly patrols around the entire village, now the three families only guard their own dwellings, other families suffer.)

Main well on village green is broken; something at the bottom stopping bucket and water level had been getting lower already, they lengthened rope.

Old Fingal the hermit has taken little Sigrid Ternheim’s kite.

Edvin Skarsgard has a problem; Silje, Fredrika, and Anna all want him.

Fulbjorht Stahl and Thrand Ternheim have a secret relationship. "Some people like white wine others like red wine, you know?"

Nergaard family secret: Kjell has been dead for a century but his ghost still wanders the cellar for some reason.

Ternheims have gone into deep debt to a moneylender and are close to losing it all cause they were supplied a substandard millstone.

Fjotra Ternheim has started worshiping Ancev She wants to be the new village cleric but knows that the other two families wouldn’t accept her.

The bridge is only so-so.

The watchtower is falling apart.

Valter Nergaard has gotten Anja Westergren pregnant but isn’t taking responsibility. Mother Njorna comes to complain.

Band of bugbears have set up camp not too far away about a year ago, so far they haven’t done anything but they can’t be trusted!

Wolf-pack attacks; Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.
