Is Rohan under a feudal type stystem? That is, the King has given Lord Eodwine the Mid-Emnet and underneath him are the land holders and beneath them are the serfs? What sort of relationship is Eodwine supposed to have with the other land owners? Is not Degas now a vassal, per say, of Eodwine - now that Degas owns the land in the Folde? So Degas has a sort of allegiance to Eodwine and Eodwine has a responsibility of protection, in a way, for Degas...or am I getting my feudalism all mixed up?
What I want to know is in what way is Eodwine responsible for Degas' land and what happened to it?
