So, I'm thinking of giving my Many-Arrows treatment to Muranndin, the ogre "kingdom" south of Amn.

I'd like to get as much information as I can out of it before I start building it from the ground up. So far all I've found are a handful of references in the FRCG and FRPG, and I'm seeing some references to its founder, Sothillis, in the 3e FRCG and Powers of Faerun.

If anyone can give me some more sources to look into, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

You should take a look at Lands of Intrigue, where the ogres' war of conquest is detailed up until before the siege of Murann. I think this book is where the concept was originated. IIRC there's some useful info on the Great History, especially about the parallel conflict between Cyricists and Selūnites. I'm guessing that's been fully detailed somewhere else (a novel, perhaps... I don't really follow the novel line).

Power of Faerun also has info.

"These things also I have observed: that knowledge of our world is
to be nurtured like a precious flower, for it is the most precious
thing we have. Wherefore guard the word written and heed
words unwritten and set them down ere they fade . . . Learn
then, well, the arts of reading, writing, and listening true, and they
will lead you to the greatest art of all: understanding."

Thanks for the info. I'll definitely be checking those sources out as soon as I have some spare money to burn.
