Alfhelm
The province, of Alfhelm was once a peaceful hamlet. The residents were peaceful people who were farmers, simple shop keepers and hunters. KOT came along, and offered protection, the elders, fearful of war agreed. Little did they know that they needed protection from KoT till it was too late.

Now, KoT is gone, left within a week of Jayna returned with the armies of THoF.
THoF and the rest of the Trilogy government resides just outside the borders in Rhydin.
Alfhelm still has plenty of farmlands, shops but now also has many of the buildings used by the kingdom including the castle which has stood there since the beginning of the history of Alfhelm, built back during the time the gor Mogul were warriors, and the dor Moridan we're both warrior people.

The shops still use the bartering system, or can take gold. The farmers tend to their crops.

There is trade agreements outside of the kingdom for things not grown or manufactured in Alfhelm.
