In the fall of 2000 I got a wonderful early Christmas gift from Mark Abbott. He sent me his works on Azerya, and parts of Hepekeria. As loath as I am to modify them, I've made a few adjustments - making the indexes similar to my own, formatting the pages and correcting broken links. Marks work is quite extensive and uses the odd scanned images from Columbia Games Lythia module/HarnWorld module to show where exactly these places are on the world of Harn. His works on Hepekeria should be up here in the near future. First off I wanted to concentrate on Azerya.
Azerya has a special place in my heart because it is the very rough equivalent of Rome on this world. Actually it's more a Bizantian city state that survived tribal incursion and is only now begining to shrink due to economic and social pressure; but that's another editorial.
