Description:

The village of Renadie lies in the southeastern corner of the Kingdom of Anasina, within a day's travel of the Aetu Mountains. Life in Renadie is quiet and peaceful. The village's primary industry is apiculture. Almost every household within the village is involved either directly or indirectly in the raising of bees, and the production and sale of bee-related products such as honey, paper, wax, etc.

The largest bee farm in Renadia is (1)the Honey Pot, owned by the Bunogalir family. In addition to the family, the Honey Pot employs a significant number of villagers to help tend the hives. 

Honey and bees are such an important part of the local economy and culture that when a local child is born, the first thing they are fed is honey. The locals believe that this connects them to the community and also gets the infant started off in life with a sweeter disposition.

Renadie is also the site of an unusual historical marker(2) commemorating the birthplace of Adolfin Rentin. Rentin fought in the Kingdom Wars, 275 years ago, and is considered a national folk hero in Anasina.  Many people think it odd that Renadie has not capitalized on the folk-hero's name and reputation, but most folk in Renadie don't seem interested in exploiting Rentin's memory.
