    Default 15 - [Inner] The Ward of Erahum [Mouse]

    The Ward of Erahum (originally Er...ah...um...) was so named after the string of sounds that issued from the lips of the late Sir Francis Malcolm Mouse, who led the city forces against the most recent orc incursion in the area. Since these words were spoken as he lay dying of his wounds, and in response to the question of where he wished to be buried, Impetua Ridicole (then the Mayoress of Erahum) decided the ward should be renamed to make it possible for them to grant Sir Francis's last wish - wherever he was ultimately interred. The exact location of his burial tomb is a mystery today, though many of our more superstitious citizens believe that if the orcs should ever return Sir Francis Malcolm Mouse will rise from his grave to lead our armies once again in victory against the terrible orcs of the west.

    Erahum lies within the city walls on the western side of the city, which has always been the side to bear the brunt of the orc wars down through the centuries. Though it is heavily developed today there are still traces here and there of several ranks of battlements from bygone ages, and a few of the civil buildings, like the general hospital were clearly built more with battle in mind than practicality.

    For the most part, however this is a large densely packed area where the only break worth speaking of lies to the north of the centre, where redeveloped slums have given rise to one of those new-fangled texture farm things - and very impressive it is too... or so I'm told.... though I don't really like the architecture... and the colours are a bit loud....
