Entrell Estates is a small landholding in the Kingdom of Nyrond.
History
[edit | edit source]Entrell Estates is one of many small landholdings around the king's lands surrounding Rel Mord. Its ruler, Gelleflair Entrell, is a rarity in being a high elf noble. In the aftermath of the Greyhawk Wars, Gelleflair obeyed King Archbold III's and his bailiffs as he had little choice in due to being so close to Rel Mord. However, his sympathies lay entirely with the people of his estates. His own men helped locals to hide possessions and harvests so as to avoid taxes, and he returned some monies to them from his own funds.[1]
Geography
[edit | edit source]The Entrell Estates were located between Rel Mord and Oldred.
Notable individuals
[edit | edit source]Notable individuals in or from Entrell Estates include:
- Gelleflair Entrell, the noble ruler of the Entrell Estates.
Government
[edit | edit source]Gelleflair was presumably appointed to his position by a monarch of Nyrond at some stage, or inherited such.
Following the reorganization of provincial administration under King Lynwerd I that commenced Needfest 1, 591 CY in was not clear whether Entrell Estates became part of Justcrown Province or the Duchy of Korenflass.[2]
Military
[edit | edit source]Gelleflair in Spring 585 CY maintained a militia of 220, of which about half were high elves and half-elves. While appearing to be simple light infantry or light cavalry, many were rangers, elven fighter/mages, or even bards, and so were a powerful force for one so small.[1]
