Hillor
Hillor is a city under Delarian flag in the region of Hillor. Their ambassador is Vin Whites. Hillor is known for it's anarchic manners. Delaria has been trying to get grip on the region for centuries, but the people of this region have always been more liberal and free than other Men of Delaria.

The city of Hillor is known as a strong bastion, it's strategic location makes it one of the most important cities for Delaria. Hillor is built next to a mountain. This mountain is more than one thirth of it's city walls. All of the southern part of the city is located on the mountains. Some of the citizens of Hillor even live in the mountains. The most important rescources in Hillor are stone, wood (From Goldener Wald), wool and silver. The silvermines of Hillor are the biggest of whole Laerdon. Because of these silvermines the people of Hillor are more wealthy then people in other regions. Even the peasants, farmers and other lowclass citizens of Hillor profit from the region's wealth.

The city of Hillor also guards the Dry River Passage, it is the route from Northridge to Scutaria.

Hillor was founded only a few years after the founding of Delaria, it is the second biggest city of the Delarian Empire. It is said that high men have also founded the city of Hillor, just like they founded Delaria. During the time of the alliance between Earth Elves and the men of Delaria Hillor was known for it's friendship with the elves. They traded knowledge in silvermining and a lot of Hillor's children studied in the Temorian Order libraries.

During the Un'oorg invasion in the second age Hillor had chosen a neutral approach, because the war was mostly fought in The Southern Road and Temoria, Hillor was not directly in danger. Jonas Whites, father of the current ambassador decied to stay neutral in this war. This meant betrayal in the eyes of Delaria and Temoria, who decided to have Whites his head chopped off. His successor was Wayne Brandon, a lord very loyal to the crown.

The people of Hillor did not like this new ambassador and started protesting heavily. During this period the Order of the White Tower became bigger. After the death of King Kelthas (February 3, year 24) More people decided that the Delarian king and his church was not the right place. It nearly came to a rebellion, but luckily for Delaria Brandon's head was chopped of during a heavy protest. To keep the peace, empress Mira Silvercrest decided to put Jonas Whites son, a boy of only 18 years old, Vin Whites on the job. Since that day the peace has been restored in the region of Hillor.
