Banner Hall is a "county" in the Ducdom of the Crownlands, primary title of His Lordship, Thurston Highhorse III.

Geography

The arldom borders Bonnyfield to the north-east, Kingswood to the south-east, Stronghold to the south, and the Antagonese ducdom of Bordoor to the north-west, across the Pale River. [One] major river flows through the arldom: the Easie; though the Antagonese border is marked by the Pale. The middle of the arldom is dominated by the Arborwood Forest and the Easie River Valley, with lowland plains to the south, and hilly country to the north, beginning the long upward slope toward the White Mountains.
