Avang

Avang was a small community on the southwestern edge of Vaasa.

Geography
The village was nestled at the base of the West Galena Mountains besides a tributary of the Beaumaris River, and was connected to the lands beyond by two trails. The westward trail led through a pass in the mountains called Garumn's Climb, and thence continued across the Plains of Barze, through the Vercy Wood ending up in Ilinvur.

The northern trail connected Avang with the community of Moortown in the Bottomless Bogs of northeastern Vaasa, and to the Dead Man's Walk trail that traversed across the southern part of Vaasa.

Trade
The community served as a market for supplies and services for local small mines as well as the nearby dwarven community of Delhalls. It served as a way-point on the trails westward.

History
In the late 15 century, the town was also a place of refuge for peoples uprooted from Ilinvur and the Plains of Barze when elementals from the Tortured Lands unexpectedly swept onto their lands and attacked. Over the course of a few months, refugees doubled the local population.
