Vspaden or Vespaden is a duchy located north of Kaedwen.

The mention of the duchy of "Vspaden" in "The Price of Neutrality" module is an error based on a fan-made map from Andrzej Sapkowski Zone, even though CD Projekt RED created a more correct map[1] of their own for the game, which does not include it. The fan-made map includes the duchy based on a (misspelled) reference to Yspaden in "The Lesser Evil". According to Andrzej Sapkowski's own notes, which were released after the map was created, Yspaden is, in fact, a city in Redania. The town in Redania is mentioned in The Lesser Evil short-story by Geralt, when he is in Blaviken:

I'm making my way to Yspaden, but I don't know if I'll get there before the snows block the way. I might get stuck in one of the little towns on the Lutonski road.
