Dalestown, a village by pre-Doom standards but the only town of the Dales tribe, where the Chief and High Doctor live and where people come to barter, vote, celebrate their four seasonal feasts and gather for war, has a stockade with watchtowers, catapults and stone-throwers.
The Doctors teach ancient hygiene but also try to heal with drums. Four half-naked servants carry a rich merchant wearing furs and gold in a litter so there is wealth in the town and the surrounding country. We understand why barbarians invade.
I must go to an event that I will describe later.

Kaor, Paul!
And as I recall, worsening climate in their homeland had been making it very tempting for these barbarians to attack the Dales. The wealth of the Dales strengthened their resolve to do so.
