Overview & Canon History
Drawn Swords is an isolated village atop a single rocky hill that overlooks the surrounding landscape. Rows of cottages built in rings along the sides of the hill ascend upward towards a small copse of trees that surround the tower of Swordskeep. The village is named for the vigilance and mind for defense that is demanded of all of its residents, thanks to the assaults it suffers on regular basis, particularly by the local orcs.
