Found at the crossroads of the Old Dwarf and Moot Roads, the small town of Wördern lies within the Imperial Province of Stirland. With an approximate population of 425, it is notorious for a tradition that, when celebrating a child's birthday, the family makes a straw-man the size of a Halfling, and stuff it with treats and candies that he "stole" from the children. Then, it is hung from a tree while blindfolded children beat it with sticks until it breaks and "gives back" the candy. Locals deny that drunks have occasionally used a real Halfling for this.
