You don't prefer sticking around one another instead of dealing with so many shems? The Avvar don't really have much to care about when it comes to lowlanders. We trade more with the dwarves, actually, works out best for both parties and unless it's raid, there's no real reason to get involved. My grandparents only met when she was forced high up into the hills to go hunting, kidnapping isn't really how it's meant to go. Besides, what is there in the Fallow Mire? Nothing to hunt, nothing for rams to graze on, they're more likely to drown and sicken than anything else there.
