The Flinty Hills is a broad, deep band of hills ostensibly part of or at least allied with Nyrond, but the subject of armed conflict with parts under the control of the Bone March and Ahlissa.
Geography
The Flinty Hills lie at the southern end of the Rakers. Their westward portion currently (as of 591 CY) lies within Nyrond, with north eastern fringe within the Bone March and southern parts within Ahlissa. To the west and north west lies the Gambodge Forest within Nyrond, to the east lie the Blemu Hills and Knurl, and to the south east and south lies the Adri Forest.
The Flinty Hills are higher and more undulating in the north, declining to plateau and broad, fertile slopes to the south and west. The northwestern edge of the hills lies within the Gamboge Forest, and has fair stocks of deer, game birds, herons, rabbits, and the like.
History
To the east, the Flinty Hills once marked the boundary of the Bone March, although the humanoids of that land hold sway over the eastern fringes of the hills, including Glandhaven, after the Greyhawk Wars. From there, they continue their assaults on the halflings, gnomes, and dwarves who cling to their livelihoods. Ahlissa controls the southern eastern portion of the hills. Nyrond has little ability to reverse these matters while recovering from the Wars. To the north, beyond the end of the Rakers, the Theocracy of the Pale regards demi-human religion as heresy, so these brave folk stand almost alone, save for such support the folk of Adri Forest can sometimes provide. While the area has fair mineral deposits, it is not rich, and the Flintfolk can afford little in the way of mercenaries.
