Points of Interest
Wæm Yk-4m Wæb is remarkably well-fortified for a site of its size and role. Tall, stout walls, strong points inside the community, concentric defenses, a strategic terrain location, or a large body of standing troops might be present. Some threat is thought to exist that makes maintaining this fortification worthwhile, though it may come at a dear cost to the locals. The community’s suzerain may be uncomfortable with these defenses, as they could just as easily be used to defy the ruler.
Due to a magical anomaly, Wæm Yk-4m Wæb is directly accessible from a nearby river, despite the lack of a physical connection between the town's pond and the river.
POI
History
