The slave trade is a very vibrant form of income for the valley as a whole.  Nearly all communities, no matter the race, have been victimized by slavers, or used the slave market to help them carve a nich for themselves.  There are slaving groups that act very similarly to the way the Privatiers of the 1500's did.  They are licensed to operate by one of the rival ruling parties, but considered outlaws and thieves by the other ruling party.  The slave market is not exclusive to any race, creed, or socio/political stature, they are all possible slaves; though it is dominated by the minority races (Orc, Dwarf, Elf, etc...).  All of the slaves have a magical mark on them that is recognizable by anyone who does not have that mark.

Deeper into the valley, which is 500+/- miles East to West and 350+/- miles North to South, there are numerous communities, a few of which rival Pillinqual in size and diversity.  Typical traveling to and from these communities can be either by river or road.  Most of the communities deeper into the valley have little or no slavery, they are the communities most commonly victimized by the slavers, and have developed a dislike for it.

The western end of the valley is difficult to travel through without the roads or rivers for it is rife with plateaus and deep river canyons.  There are many bridges and switchback trails that lead into and out of Pillinqual, and the other two cities on the coast, but each of these cities have direct access to each other by sea, and to the valley by the rivers.  Skald and Ermach have easier access to the eastern portions of the valley by land because they are ouside the area with all the canyons.
