 The town of '''Sülag''' [sū-lag], population 17,278, is the second largest settlement of Kaiden and the only major settlement of the shire. Located on the eastern banks of the Glöstus Rock River, where the river spills into the sea, Sülag has become a major port town that services both the lumber and fishing industries, as well as being a stopping point on the sea trade routes which pass through the Straights of Feldinar. Nearly a fifth of the town (3,442) is located on the western side of the river, making that portion of the town officially part of the territory of Mærtosh and under the rule of a lesser noble (Lord Dräll Thichall). Relations between those of Kaiden and Mærtosh are generally neutral-to-good. There are many who live and work on different sides of the river.
 The muddy road which passes through the town crosses the river over a single, 10-foot-wide heavy-timber bridge. There is a bridge guard and toll collector stationed on the Kaiden side who exacts a toll of 5 cp for every non-resident of Sülag who passes through (road-use-tax). Residents and businesses of Sülag must pay a 4% tariff on all trade goods transported into, or out of, the town, as well as a 6% income tax. The church of the Five Divines also collects a 10% tithe. The average wealth of the town is Struggling. Most of the homes and buildings were constructed of cheap materials and are not regularly maintained, so the town has a filthy, poor appearance. The baron's manor home is only of a slightly higher quality, with a masonry foundation and solid timber construction.

 ==Jedok Invasion==
-In the summer of 7418, the largest naval force the [[Lands_of_Kaliteth#Jedok|Jedok]] have ever assembled sailed across the Sea of Træhör. The ships landed an invasion force on the eastern shores of Kaiden, on a prominence of land between Conde Nast and Balbontin. The army released a magical plague that spread to the people of Kaiden. The Kaiden soldiers who marched out to meet the armies suffered major loses, defeated and pushed back to Conde Nast. The village of Balbontin was conquered, raided then burned to the ground. The army divided, half continuing on to Conde Nast, half moving north to Balikesir. While the armies marched north and west, the Jedok ships sailed to blockaded the ports of Conde Nast and Balikesir.

-Sir Elathain Kelwyn, the [?] V'krd'm'gek, and their companions, through use of ambush and guerrilla tactics, succeeded in weakening and disrupting the northern Jedok army. They then coordinated efforts between the remaining Kaiden forces and allied forces from Du'Fohl and Mærtosh. This united Kaliteth army then succeeded in retaking Conde Nast and killing or capturing the remaining Jedok forces and ending the invasion.

-The '''Jedok Plague''' has continued to spread throughout Kaliteth, however, efforts to quarantine and restrict travel from those from Kaiden has drastically hindered the spread. Kaiden was very hard hit by the plague, with nearly 80% of the people lost. Many of the homes are abandoned. Many of the trades have been left with insufficient workers for some industries to operate. Further, there are no fit men left to conscript into the military.

-Located in the southwestern lands of Kaiden, the '''Shire of Ebon''' (more commonly called Ebon Shire) borders the Territory of Mærtosh along the Glöstus Rock River, the Shire Raven to the northwest, the Shire of Lorn to the east along the Hayden Wash River, and the southwest highland slopes of Mt. Cerrik to the north. Like much of Kaiden, most of Ebon Shire is comprised of heavily forested lands. The town of Sülag is the only major settlement in the shire. Beside the two major rivers bordering the shire, the only other significant body of water is Lake Iis, located in a deep valley near the center of the shire.
