Hinderstap

General

Hinderstap is a town in Murandy in what used to be known as the Splintered Hills, close to an old road that may date to pre-breaking days. It specialises in goat's cheese and mutton (TGS, Ch. 27). Hinderstap is caught in what Thom calls a snag in the Pattern. Forseveral months before Mat visited after leaving Altara, the entire town loses their minds at nights and goes on a mindless killing rampage, only to wake up,alive the next morning,in their own beds, with no memories of the night before apart from a few nightmares. They don't know what happens, and most of the damage done repairs itself, but the missing memories and slight damage led them to realise something bad happens (TGS, Ch. 28. As a result of this, they instituted strict rules, banning outsiders from staying afer sunset and open fies at that time. People who stay overnight are trapped in the same nightmare, waking up the next morning in a randombed, which is theirs from that point on. People cannot escape; suicides wake up alive the next day and even people who try and flee are returned at dawn (TGS, Ch. 28). The people of Hinderstap wear vests and green velvetcloaks
