Editing Dern's Hold (section)

===The Hold===
[[Image:Derns MootHall.gif|frame|The old Erenlander built moot hall at the top-center of the keep.]]
:  At the center of the compound, the most impressive building of this squalid village serves as the master quaters (Dern).  The old moot hall, built when the refugees escaped the Shadow-held lands of their ancestors more than 40 years ago, attests to the villagers' pride and craftmanship, now all but lost from Dern's torture, slaving and the age of time.  Inside there are three rooms.  
::  '''War Room''':  The largest is the entry room where Dern planned his attacks.  The room has a large wooden table and a series of well made but mismatched chairs.  On the table is a very rough map of the eastern woodlands with markings of known villages and locations of where Dern though there may be others. 
::  '''Master's Room''':  The next largest room is the master bedroom, which has a huge bed and several chests of clothes. Dern shared this room with his woman, Lida, a solemn 16-year-old girl he took on a raid in LA 97.  To the back of the bedroom is a door to the last room.  In the bottom of one of the chests is a hidden hatch leading into a tight crawlspace that leads a long crawl down and out of the keep about 1/4 mile from the Palisades (this is now currently in the field where trees have been cut away, so it unfortunately offers little to no cover when sneaking out)
::*  Lida 16-year-old Erenlander female (commoner 1)
::  '''Storage''':  A small storage room, which has bits of armor, captured weapons, and other items Dern though might hold value.
