At the beginning of the Sil River, merchants seeking to make their fortune on the waters begin the slow journey down the river.

Most of these barges are pulled by single horse or ox. They gently pull the barge laden with goods down the river to be traded and sold to anyone needing supplies.

From the Corrington side of the river, farmers often bring their livestock to waters edge to quench their thirst before bringing them back to their pens.

The Oleonese constantly patrol their side of the river as they ride back and forth between their forts.

These tradesman provide a lot to the farmers and villages along the rivers shore.

I must say, they are very dashing Oleonese horsemen indeed! Great landscaping on the river as well.

Very nice diorama. I like the landscape on the river with the different plants. The People are well integrated into what is happening.

Thanks! I probably spent far too much time making sure they looked just right, but it was worth it!
