Klaastoss

Klaastoss is a village located in the fictional region of Aethelgard. It is situated along the winding course of the River Faelan, approximately fifty miles upstream from the larger town of Oakhaven. The village itself is small, consisting primarily of a central cluster of dwellings, a modest inn known as The Weary Traveler, and a blacksmith's forge. The surrounding landscape is characterized by rolling hills and dense woodlands, which have historically provided timber and game for the inhabitants.

The economy of Klaastoss is largely agrarian, with most villagers cultivating small plots of land for subsistence farming. Some also engage in fishing in the River Faelan or gathering forest products. The village has a long-standing tradition of craftsmanship, particularly in woodworking and metalworking, though these skills are now more of a hobby than a primary source of income for most.

Historically, Klaastoss has remained a relatively isolated settlement, with its population experiencing little significant fluctuation over the centuries. Its strategic importance has been minimal, and it has largely avoided the larger conflicts that have swept through Aethelgard. The current population is estimated to be around two hundred souls. Local lore speaks of ancient ruins hidden within the nearby forests, though their origin and purpose are unknown.
