cities next to cauldren??

[Mortegro]

I was reading over some of the cities around cauldren, and I am not sure what each of them is about. The captital city does not really seem to feature in the game much beyond getting some magic items, but the other three smaller cities seem to be part of the plot later on down the road.

Can anyone give me descriptions of what is going on in those other cities? I think my players are about ready to go and explore them and I do not want to design them drasticaly different then how a plot might be layed out in the future.

First we have Sasserine. In the adventures the city is located 200 miles to the south of Cauldron, on the Greyhawk map it is 30 miles north of Cauldron on the coast (I find this distance too near). Not much is said about it and you are free to fill it out as you want. There was a discussion about being able to raise Sarcem Delasharn in Sasserine, which came to the conclusion, that his soul does not want to return, as he has failed his duties to St. Cuthbert (Tyr).

The villages of Kingfisher Hollow und Hollowsky are not used in the Adventure Path.

The little town of Redgorge is detailed in the Demonskar Legacy (Dungeon 104). It is the HQ of the Chisel (with Maavu as its representative in Cauldron) and is used as a station on the way to the Demonskar.

The Haunted Village is left undetailed, but in the Demonskar Legacy there is a campaign seed about it, suggesting to use the Haunted village as a side quest, if the adventurer do not accumulate enough XP's to enter a next installment of the Adventure Path (though it is difficult to insert it after that adventure, as the group will be whisked away at the start of the next installment).

Crazy Jared's Hut is used in "Zenith Trajectory" (Dungeon 102), "The Lucky Monkey" is featured in "Flood Season", "The Ruins Of Shatterhorn" are used near the end of the Adventure Path. "Hookface" appears in "Foundation Of Flame", but his/her lair is not used. The gender of Hookface differs during the adventure path, but most are leaning to a female red dragon, that is furious about the demise of her progeny in "Zenith Trajectory".
