From the journal of Ardebast Raconteur:

As you might expect from the name, the town of Appleglen’s main product is apples. The town is situated to the east of the apple orchards that have grown surrounding Sweetwater Lake.

It’s not surprising that apples form a central dietary staple for Appleglen’s residents. They make everything with apples there; apple dumplings, apple pies, apple cider, applesauce, apple butter, apple bread, and of course, my personal favourite apple fritters. You’d be hard pressed to find any inn or tavern that does not have apples on the menu. Fortunately, for me, I love apples so it’s always an appreciated stop on my itinerary.

The apple orchards surrounding Appleglen are also responsible for Sweetwater Lake. After years of apples from the surrounding orchards falling into the lake, the water of the lake has sweetened, hence the name.

Carja’s Notes:

Appleglen wasn’t even in the original map of Pelaria. I added it later because I felt the map was too empty in that area. I added the orchards and from there the idea came for Sweetwater Lake next to it.
