1. Geography
Tir Chonaill is a hillside town located in the northeast of Uladh, near the foothills of the Mourne Mountains. The population is small and relatively isolated. The town is only accessible by a dangerous mountain road, which often washes out in heavy rain, leaving Tir Chonaill completely cut off.
The town's northwest border is formed by the mountain range, and to the north, an old graveyard. The south end of the town is taken up by farmland and a reservoir for irrigation. The eastern outskirts are dominated by pasture land, although one can also find a large water mill and a windmill, which allow the residents to process grain and provide water for the reservoir. There is a forge where a blacksmith makes and sells weapons in the southeast, at the edge of the town's developed land.
2. Water Table
Adelia Stream flows through Tir Chonaill and is the village's main source of water. The stream's source is near the Moonhide Gorge, on the eastern side of the Mourne Mountains. The water is known to be cold and clear, as it's fed mainly by snowmelt and rain. Locals sometimes call Adelia Stream "the Tears of Saint Adelia", as it was named for a well-known local priestess who is said to have worked with Saint Isla. Townsfolk rely on this stream for a great deal of their livelihoods: drinking, farming, fishing, and leisure.
3. Scenery
Tir Chonaill has a climate molded by mountains. Compared to its surroundings in the lowlands, it experiences lower temperatures and much more fog, rain, and snow. While the temperatures usually do not reach Uladh's coldest extremes, the chill can persist year-round. These occasional spells of bitter cold that blow in from the direction of Moonhide Gorge are often held to be the fickle whims of Cailleach, the god of the northern winds.
The Mourne Mountains are known to trap the moist air that blows from the sea, bringing heavy rainstorms to Tir Chonaill. Road maintenance is a perpetual burden for the residents. Despite fertile soil, between the cold and heavy rain, farms are small and yield relatively meager harvests.
