Bar Melui

Arnach serves as the traditional seat and stronghold of Lord Forlong, though the corpulent lord maintains closer personal ties to Imloth Melui through his marriage to Lady Vanyalos. The town represents the administrative and military center of Lossarnach, where taxes are collected, justice dispensed, and the fiefdom's military forces mustered.The settlement takes its name from the ancient pre-Númenórean kingdom of Arnach that once controlled these valleys, preserving a connection to peoples who lived here millennia before Gondor's founding. This antiquity shows in the town's layout - irregular streets following ancient pathways rather than the ordered planning typical of Númenórean cities, and foundations incorporating stonework whose origins are lost to time.
