The eastern frontier is where King Braddock is currently pushing 
everyone to go; he hopes that by pushing out past the eastern 
mountains, and through the Free Frontier, he can create a buffer from 
the always wild monstrous bands (which are rumored to be rekindling the 
Great Alliance), while providing him more territory (e.g. taxes). It 
would also help ease the problems of overpopulation which people are 
citing in the Western Kingdom; the Western Kingdom has a population 
density of about 1 person every 3 square miles, which by the standards 
of most people in this time and area, is quite dense. They want more 
open land, for farming, for hunting, and for the occasional black 
wizard's tower with strange experiments and all.
	Adventuring bands and the Royal Merchant Company, the private 
concern of Lord Earl Dunnigan (King Braddock's cousin), constantly lead 
expeditions into the frontier. The Church also continues to send 
expeditions into the wild country. Some of them do it for King and 
Country, some for God, some for Glory and some simply for Money. Either 
way, the demihumans are starting to pour out of the eastern mountains 
in droves, and the monstrous races aren't about to take it lying down.
