The Huhrong's Road appears on map of Rashemen in Unapproachable East, but I can't find any textual references to it there or in any other source which I have checked. What lore is there on this, please
|
I have a mouth, but I am in a library and must not scream.

I don't think there is much of the Road itself. Or at least nothing I can recall at the moment. Though, it's marked by a "track" rather than a permanent road if I'm remembering correctly, so there may not have been much reason to provide any particular references to it.
Or, alternatively, it's just another of those places on a map that have yet to receive any specific attention in the lore.

The name rings a bell, though - isn't 'Huhrong' some sort of title (probably in Rasheman)?
That may indicate that it has military applications.
Just guessing here, sorry. |

I suppose that's one interpretation. Or it was a roadway/track dedicated to the Huhrong at one time. Or that's what it's simply come to be known as because an Iron Lord once travelled along it.
Really, without any direct references to the Huhrong's Road in the lore, one interpretation is just as likely as any other at this point. That is, until it receives some possible attention in a future DDi article. Say, one that features 4e lore on Rashemen. [hint, hint] |
