Nishka

Most towns in Brennis were devastated by the Godswar, struck with mass destruction, famine, and disease. Located in the north eastern corner of the region, Nishka seems to be the exception to the rule. A small farming village before the war, Nishka was never of any particular note to the world at large. When Sifor's rays burnt the land, and Wodea's poisons rendered it infertile, Nishka should have been among the first to dissolve. However, quite the opposite has seemed to occur. Since the war, Nishka has not only survived, but grown substantially. However, this growth seems to have had interesting effects on the population. They have seemed to closed themselves off from the rest of the world, turning travelers away civilly but firmly.

Passive glances at Nishka reveal that their arable land is in much the same state as the rest of the region. Any farmer would tell you that even conservative estimates on the town's population would be incapable of sustaining themselves on such a meager food supply. And thus the question on the minds of many Brennisians; what is happening in Nishka? Occasionally, brave souls will try to enter the town. Those that do have told tales of an outwardly ordinary village, though the inhabitants don't seem to spend any time farming, nor do they import any food from elsewhere. The villagers have been observed eating, though their meals seem to consist entirely of some form of meat that these unobserved visitors could not identify at a short glance. At any rate, trips into the village are few and far between, and all unsanctioned by the inhabitants of Nishka. Its probably all just rumors, right?
