Farrel
From The Heretic Knowledge Vault
Farrel is the big chunk of land between Tsuiraku and Veracia. The interior was once ruled by the Keiren. I guess it has forests or something?
History
Before The Mage/Priest Wars between Tsuiraku and Veracia, Farrel was in the Veracian Church's sphere of influence. The Veracians didn't quite run the place, but that didn't keep them from acting like it.
After Tsuiraku's victory, Farrel moved into the Tsuirakan sphere of influence and a Marshall Plan-like program was set up to modernize the country. (Not that they should need it- for all its 19th Century feel, Farrel is obviously the most advanced culture in the comic, shown by it exclusive development of the clothes-button.)
Culture
Farrelian culture seems to be libertarian. Law enforcement is conducted by hiring one of many mercenary guilds, the products of which will do their utmost to keep the peace for as long as they are employed. Should a mercenary find himself unemployed, he rather graciously elects to fill the role of the criminal class. The Gewehr Wraiths began as a Farrellian mercenary guild before they re-invented themselves as a criminal syndicate following a catastrophic defeat at the hands of the Northern Confederacy.
Jon Amraphel's description of what he had been taught about the creation of the elves and humans indicates that, at least during his youth, the followers of Luminosita held considerable sway. Now that Farrel has seemingly turned away from the priests of Veracia and towards the mages of Tsuiraku.
Cities
Farrel contains the cities of Port Lorrel, Taberna, Thranel and Isabel.
