The Hollow Shard

Hoi-oi! The Hollow shard is a prosperous shard indeed...

... The Judge sees that none who goes through her town leaves without either loosing a coin or their lives. All in all there is no doubt that the deal is good. The river is safe, and much better than crossing those forsaken triffs! Ha! A gold piece is a cheap price to pay when ones life is on the line!

A few weeks back, a puffy wizard came through. Tried to talk sweet to the Judge, see? Last mistake the wiz made was try to bribe her. Ho-ho! Gobble him up she did. I saw it with my good eye, the whole thing. Not even the fella's hat-feather remained, chomp-chomp...

Dwarf merchant at the Dancing Mare in Bale crown.

This shard is rulled by a dragon called the Judge who maintains law in an otherwise unruly merchant town.

The Judge has many agents in her shard and beyond to keep tight control on her shard and its monumental hoard made from taxing the ships that pass from the Antic and Bale crowns.
