House Harren

In Three Points, the name Harren isn’t whispered like a threat or praised like a blessing.
It is simply the name of the place—stitched into its timbers, hammered into its nails, and stamped into every rule that keeps the market from tipping into chaos.

Who They Are

House Harren is the noble house that founded and owns Three Points Trading Post. The trading post did not grow “organically” from a crossroads of wagons and wandering merchants—it was built with intention, planned as an engine for profit, and made to draw trade into Meriquy rather than let it slip past.

Even if you arrive with no interest in noble politics, you feel their presence in the practical details: whose seal appears on permits, who sets tariffs, who decides which stalls get prime space, and who is allowed to sell what within the square.

Lord Lucian Harren Downings

Lord Lucian Harren Downings is spoken of as the founder of Three Points Trading Post—a human lord who built the settlement to expand his wealth. Whether you call it ambition or opportunism depends on what side of the bargain you tend to stand on.

In conversation, locals talk about him less like a distant legend and more like a presence that can still reach you: the kind of man whose name appears on decisions that affect your coin purse, even if you never see his face.

Lady Eydana Vale Loynai

House Harren’s influence in Meriquy is strengthened by Lord Lucian’s marriage to Lady Eydana Vale Loynai, a wood-elf noble of Meriquy. You hear her name in a different tone—more careful, more measured—because it carries the weight of local lineage and long-standing ties.

To a traveller, the marriage reads like a bridge built of two things: wealth on one side, and nobility of Meriquy on the other. Whatever affection may or may not exist behind closed doors, the union makes the Harren name harder to ignore.

How Their Ownership Shows

Three Points is not “free town” trade. It is Harren trade.

You see it in the small systems that keep the place running: fees collected, rules posted, disputes settled quickly when coin is on the line. Merchants learn fast that a profitable stall is not only about supply and demand—it is also about staying in good standing with the people who can revoke your right to sell.

Traveller’s Notes

• If someone tells you “that’s Harren land,” believe them. Ownership is not a metaphor here.
• Keep your receipts, your agreements, and your temper. Trade runs smoother when you can prove your words.
• Three Points welcomes strangers—so long as strangers remember they are guests in a house-built town.
