Marunath

"Horse of the Ford" - Prophetic Town

The capital of Battania owned by Caladog of the fen Gruffendoc and governed by Muinser.

Marunath's villages are Dalmengus, Ebereth, Beglomuar, and Ath Cafal.

"Marunath, the "Horse of the Ford", is nowhere near a river. But Battanian bards love nothing more than an incongruous place-name around which a legend can be woven. In this case the hero Ochlaigan, who was foretold to defeat the seven sons of Glanys in seven duels near seven fords, encountered the last of his enemies here. He slit his horse's throat and crossed over the stream of blood that gushed forth, defeating his last enemy and fulfilling the prophecy."
