Description

House Lolliston is a noble house of the riverlands, not much is known about them other than their sigil shows three oaken barrels on a white background.


The lands of House lolliston are situated along the greenfork, near where it meats the blue fork.


The town of Sweetwillow in Lolliston is the first major settlement north of the crossroads inn.

The lolliston’s are famous for their breweries and there are a couple dotted throughout their lands. The most notable is that found in the Sweetwillow septry. Sweetwillow is a small town that sits along the green fork it was burnt down in the Dance of the Dragons by Vhagar but since then it has regrown and now welcomes travellers along the kings road a safe haven to sleep, pray and trade goods with the locals.

Features

Aside from sweetwillow the lands of house lolliston are fertile and are well used for agriculture, despite this most of the lands are covered in a mix of temperate and coniferious forests, if you take the main road through the forests it will lead you to the seat of house Lolliston, a castle constructed on the crown of one of the rocky foot hils of the mountains of the vale. The castle commands an almost panoramic vantage point over the valleys surrounding it.

Construction

Construction began in 2017 when the project was approved. Most of the work was undertaken between 2017-2018. The project was occasionally worked on from 2019-2021 but had largely ground to a halt. In 2021 a redo plan was set out which would be fully realised by mid 2023, this plan kept much of the same layout as the original project but overhauled the style of the builds and the terrain to match current standards.

Inspiration

The project was inspired by a lack of life along the greenfork at the time and would take inspiration from German castles.
