Once merely a frontier settlement like Chevalle, Beignac has over time evolved into a major trade hub. The forests to its south are home to many peaceful elven tribes, who trade furs and other animal products for tools and luxuries from the west. Likewise, the proximity to the orc settlements in Kurnhuelde makes Beignac a regular stop for traders traveling to or from the peninsula. A few years ago, the Imardin Navy declared that Beignac would become its next major hub, possibly in preparations for more eastward excursions in the future. In 6E Y82 work officially began on Fort Beignac, which looks to rival even Fort Victoire in scale.
