An overview of Tir Chonaill.

Description and Geography

Map of Tir Chonaill.

The town village where all newcomers first arrive.

Tir Chonaill is a small hillside town located in northeast Uladh, It is home to the descendents of the Partholons, founders of the Uladh kingdom. The villagers of this scenic town are a small, self-sufficient and independent group of farmers and ranchers raising crops and cattle. The residents of Tir Chonaill prefer peace and isolation, content with little exposure to the massive world of Erinn. However, those with a more adventurous spirit can further venture beyond Tir Chonaill to Dunbarton through the Dugald Aisle...[1]

Commerce Tir Chonaill Icon.png Tir Chonaill is a village situated in northeastern basin surrounded by low mountains. Establishment of the settlement dates back historically to descendants of Partholoneons, who originally founded the Kingdom of Ulaid.

Precipitation is high due to obstruction of a clear flow of moist air in face of Mourne Mountains. Climate is comparable to similar settlements in high altitudes.

While wheat and barley plantations are notably conspicuous, cool weather and regular rainfall have stunted the growth of agriculture. Instead, management of livestock keeps the town's infrastructure afloat.

Since granted limited sovereignty by the kingdom, Tir Chonaill has been led by town chiefs. According to Dilys and Duncan, Tir Chonaill is actually not under the control of the Kingdom of Aliech.

Dugald Aisle offers the only route to the outside world, and due to the steep acclivity of the terrain, little traffic exists in and out of the town. Thus, the village has naturally developed to be largely self-sufficient.

Landmarks

  • Adelia Stream, from which most of the townspeople derive their drinking water, flows downwards from melting glaciers and snow from the Moonhide Valleys.
  • The Graveyard, which was built for the victims of the Fomorian Raids that regularly descended upon Tir Chonaill in the past. It has since been overran with spiders.[2][3]
  • The Eastern fields, where fierce animals appear frequently.
  • The Farmlands, where most of the village's crops are grown.
  • The Windmill, regulated by Alissa, allows players to grind crops into flour.
  • The Southern fields, where wolves appear. Dogs defending sheep can frequently be seen there.
  • The Pastures, located at the east, allow sheep to graze.
  • The Old Ruin, alongside the northern path, is a mysterious artifact that has ties to Avon.

History

  • A legend envelopes the stream; the name 'Adelia' purportedly finds its origin in a story of a priestess who lost her life in a strife between Fomors and residents of Tir Chonaill, and in recognition of her bravery, the stream was named after her.
    • For some reason, the events surrounding this case were obfuscated, the exact details of the event being unknown to the common populace.
