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.
