Submission: Hidden View Hold
Board: Fort
Description:
Located to the west of Fort Weyr, Hidden View Hold is exactly that. It lies along the mountain range in the valley that separates it from the range the Weyr is a part of. It is most easily reached by dragon or the river that flows through the valley and out to the Western Sea. Because of this, Peyton Hold to the south along the river, is one of their biggest trading locations aside from the Masterweaver Hall which is happy to take their wool as Hidden Valley specializes in breeding sheep along with a few other livestock.
The Hold also has a tragic past that most are no longer aware of. It used to be called Retallek Hold until a harsh winter late in the Second Pass wiped out the population. It was eventually resettled and renamed, though trouble still seems to follow the Lords of the Hold--most recently, the Lord Holder was removed by Lord Fort and the Hold was gifted to a young and untested Lord.
Submission: Misty Hold
Board: High Reaches
Description:
A minor Hold beholden to Tillek Hold and located to the east of it, Misty Hold is nestled into an alcove of the mountain range along the Western Sea. Due to its isolated position, Misty doesn't have much to offer in the ways of trade and export, relying more on fishing to further support Tillek and the Fishercraft Hall. However, in recent years, they have gained a reputation as a good place to foster sons at and have proven to be strong in social and political environments, making Misty Hold a worthy ally.
Submission: Ice Ridge Hold
Board: Benden
Description:
Located to the east of Benden Hold and along the Benden Range, Ice Ridge Hold faces out into large open plains with a river that leads from the mountain out to the Eastern Sea. It is known more for their breed of work horses but they also have a successful apple orchard. The current Lord and Lady also have strong ties to the Weyrs and are vocal supporters that have hosted yearly winter festivities for dragonriders since their return.
