The Innland Inn started as a smallish inn on the main road from Goranth to lands further north. Farmers moved in to supply the inn and export goods through Coinighy. Gunter Balckhammer built a timber mill, and lumber and manufactured wooden goods were then added to the Innland Inn's exports.
With the rise of the prosperity surrounding the inn, bandits moved in. The level of extortion and general theft caused a revolt, and most of the original town was burnt to the ground before the bandits were finally driven out.
The inn was rebuilt by Gunter Vikersk (senior), the father of the current owner, Pietr Vikersk (senior). Gunter allied himself with the Dormer family of Coinighy and received limited aid for fortifications, mostly a wooden wall and weapons. This alliance was before Illyria became a Duchy of Goranth.
Over time, the inn grew into a military camp and the beginnings of a small fortified town. With Illyria's alliance with Goranth, Innland Inns Deuce was made an ordinary Count with responsibility for the North. While Deuce's allegiance was formally bound to Illyria, in practice, nothing changed.
