A secondary, minor, or out-of-the-way location; a place situated away from the main or central area.
From 'by' (secondary, beside) + 'place,' this compound describes a location that is not primary or central but rather peripheral or remote.
In fantasy novels, the most interesting stories often happen in 'byplaces'—the quiet villages and hidden corners where major historical events are actually brewing!
