+Sunsmarch is an Aldori dominated statelet led by Swordlord Domitius Aldori-Solanus and his wife and his wife, Alisa Solanus.  While most residents are human and the leaders are mainly Aldori, there is a significant Dwarven presence.  Some of the Dwarves of The ironguard (see Old Frontier) hail from here, as did sone of the mercenaries used in the earl days of settling the frontier.  That has developed into an informal link between the Sunsmarch and The Frontier, although there is  no physical  connection between then.  To travel between the two meas a long journey through wild country, then attacking the attention of a fisherman, who could transport you across Coal Lake.
-**Sunsmarch**
+A single large town, called Vanold, is their seat of power.  A small castle dominates the town, which is surrounded by homes and the businesses that a busy town needs.  Among the most prominent are the Solanus Sword School (which specialises in the Aldori fighting arts) and the Moon Temple, a circular building, laid out like a crescent moon, which contains shrines to several deities, in their guise of a moon-deity.
-Lead by Sword-Lord Domitius Aldori-Solanus, Sunsmarch is seen as the spiritual home for Aldori who wish to break away from the chaos of Maven.  His main  settlement is Vernold -  add a Sword School to the existing spec.
+Reached, from Tusk, by a broad river, House Yitis-Aldori have their holdings at the docks, with jetties, warehouses and offices, as well as a mansion that serves as home to Yermek Yitis-Aldori, the local leader of House Yitis. Other buikding include a chapel dedicated to eration, and the Delver Brewery, run by dwarves it brews Delver Stout (a dark dwarf beer).
-**Known Aldori with a presence in Sunsmarch**
+Several villages cluster around the outskirts, the main ones are :
-  * Swordlord Yasmin Yitis-Aldori maintains a presence here. However, their main holdings are Tusk.  Make them the main water based trade link.
-  * Swordlord Minia Dosalic-Aldori,  (and her sister) -  Move Apple Lodge
-  * Barbatius Aldori -Scaurus  (Dom’s ex squire) -  assign him to Blade hold and change the Holy House into a Road-house
-**Others**
+**Apple Lodge** – home to Minia Dosalic-Aldori, and her sister Maple  (a druid).  Their village is based on crop farms and apple orchards.  They also make cider which is sold across Sunsmarch.  Minia and Maple live at the manor house.
-  * Kiera -  move some of her holdings  into Vernold
-  * Alisa – wife to Dom -  Give her a chapel to the Moon (replaces abadar) and a magic shop in Vernold -  a more mainstream lunar deity.   (Ashava? Kelinahat?  Nocticula??)  Perhaps make it a temple to the moon, with shrines to a number of lunar deities?  That reflects the character's original concept with a  ‘what am I worshipping?’ type continuation.
+**Bladehold** - a fortified village, that is home to Barbatius Scaurus-Solanus, a long time friend and support of Dom.  It  is in the foothill at the edge of the mountains, and predominantly supports sheep farms. Barbatius lives at the manor house.
-  * Clan Silverhammer -  Dwarf allies, who helped establish the state.  Move most of their holdings to Vernold.  They are one of the sponsors of the Dwarves in The Old Frontier.
+**Lakehold** – home to Messimarus Aldori–Blain, a long-term friend of Domitius.   While it is set on a small lake, it is primarily an agricultural village supporting a couple of mixed economy farms and small holdings.  Among other things, it produces a lot of the milk, cheese and eggs that Vanold requires.  Messimarus lives at the manor house.
+**Hammerhold** – set on the fringes of the mountains, Hammerhold is further from the town that the other villages.  It is home to Hargrym Silverhammer, leader of the local Silverhammer dwarf clan.  Hargrym is a long term ally of Domitious, and has offered him support for years.  The dwarves quarry stone in the mountains for local building and export.  Hargrym live in a fortified tower in the middle of the village.
