    Uskedge?

    In my Aerdy-land research I found a reference to Uskedge:

    General Lomor, Margrave of UskedgeHe is the leader of the Great Kingdom's forces against the Adri and bears the coat of arms of Uskedge on a golden banner.

    Anyone have any more information or ideas about this place or General Lomor?

    The source is the novel "Saga of Old City" (page 266) by Gygax.

    Here is a link to an internet copy of Saga of Old City, by Gary Gygax.

    http://www.e-reading.org.ua/bookreader.php/151040/Gygax_1_Saga_of_the_Old_City.html

    Unfortunately, it does not provide any additional information on Uskedge, itself.

    You will find references to Lomor and Uskedge on page 64 of that document near the beginning of chapter 25. (I copied it into a Word document and used the Edit/Find function to locate them.)

    The only part of the Adri Forest with an organized and hostile Aerdi army regularly raiding it is the northeastern part, where Edge Field is. I think Uskedge must be near Edge Field, if it isn't just another name for Edge Field (or the margravate that contains Edge Field). If so, General Lomor is probably the same person as Hastern of Naelax.

    If you wanted to keep them separate, I'd make Uskedge a smaller tributary beholden to Edge Field.

    Thank you Smile

    Now I have all the Gord novels in my research archive. I'm working on the area right now so I'll look into placing Uskedge, and I'll post my suggestion here for you to look at.

    Thanks again for your help!
