L'Urque is a town, located in the Protectorate of Borrd. It lies in the mountain glades of the Lhawgin Heights beside the main road from Andboc to Vaekew, between the former nation of El-Jheycom and Wechi. L'Urque grew up around the mead-hall of Ælcalen, being a convenient place for travellers between Borrd and Wechi to stay their journey and take refreshment of song and drink by the hearth.
