The Duchy of Buckeye is a Fief of the Kithain in the Kingdom of Grass.
Overview[]
Originally settled by the French, the Duchy of Buckeye, named for the buckeye trees that flourish throughout the state, has become a focal point for returning members of House Beaumayn in the years since they re-entered the Autumn World. Duke Gerrard d'Ivoire inherited the prestigious freehold, The Arches, located in the capital city of Columbus, when its former lord, Andres McCarty of House Dougal, met his Undoing and wandered away from his home to take up residence elsewhere in the city. He left no heir, and Gerrard’s timely appearance seemed a sign that the freehold should pass to him. Other members of his House find hospitality with him while they decide where they will make their new home. Some remain in the duchy, while others travel elsewhere in Concordia.
The freehold of Fontainebleau, in Cincinnati, named for the French palace as well as the city itself (“The Fountain City”), belongs to Marcella Sourania, a satyr of House Fiona. Many changeling artists and artisans gravitate to this center of creativity, located in a wooded part of the city.
