Faraden lies to the west of the Empire. It is a rocky, hilly nation on the far side of the Lasambrian hills. The Faraden are canny traders and fierce warriors. Up until very recently, the Faraden traded frequently with the Freeborn at Anduz, but since the fall of Segura in 363 YE this has become a good deal more difficult. They are known to trade with their neighbours the Iron Confederacy, but also with lands to the south and west that are largely unvisited by Imperial traders - their nation serves as a “gateway” to the southwestern parts of the continent.
