The northeastern arable land of Volfor, Osuvanne is a farmers hamlet, with three farms clustering together for a co-operative of sorts, with a small crossroads marking the village on the map. Named after the land that gives it is lifestyle, Osuvanne is a quiet and unsuspecting place for the short term visitor.
The corn flows like a river / Whispering words of home / Golden seas roiling, promises of home./ Home! O! Fields of Osuvanne, guide this soldier home!—Sergeant Esketh Perennial, In the rain
History
The Town of Osuvanne (lit: Cradle of the world) is a small market and farming town you probably have never heard of. Founded by the Hockerbile family some 1500 years ago, the landscape has not changed overmuch in the intervening years.
Layout
The town has a small square and a marble fountain is the centerpiece of run down, ancient monument building. The square is completed by a town hall officially called a Merobidd where matters of dispute were adjudicated upon by the elders of the village. South westward of the town the well established Andersmith and Hockerbile steads are situated, with several rolling hills and fields partitioned off by dry stone walls. North of the Joeväljak, a solitary hill is framed by the rivulets and is crowned by the Marmorikroon, a stone circle.
From time to time in its history, the proud men and women of Osuvanne have been called upon to serve the local militia or brigades of military that have called this land home. A skeleton-staffed fort overlooks the town on the southern mountains, as the eastern road winds toward the King's Road and the twin cities of Vol and Furangar to the north, and the center of commerce, Blademarket in the south.
Tavern
The options for visitors to stay in the farming village are limited to barns and proffering coin to the farmers to allow wild camping on their land. Alcohol, for what it is, is rarely served outside the family homes, but a meeting point for the village exists and is known as The Hubbub; part meeting house, part town hall, mostly a gossip hall for the elderly patrons and the de-facto barkeep Alexandra Andersmith.
Markets and Merchants
Very limited supplies of foodstuffs are present in this village, but a thriving Apothecary does business out of the Hubbub's stableyard, and bottles carrying the Withnal Crest are often seen across Volfor.
