The Village Of Northrun

Located 5 miles north of the Capital city of Riverhewn lies the village of Northrun. It is nestled against the banks of the Fler river and uses the river to power the large sawmill that is the main source of income for the village. Raw logs felled in the Burneal and Heartwood forests are transported south on the Fler to Northrun, where they are milled and turned into usable lumber for the furniture makers and builders of Shendenflar. Northrun is a relatively quiet village with a small inn the "Laughing Dwarf" that is mostly used by bargemen travelling the Fler river. The "Singing Dragon" is the local watering hole and can be a rough place when the bargemen arrive in town.One area of note in Northrun is the "Nymph" a "festhall" that never seems to be open. noises can be heard coming from the building on certain nights and lights can be seen through cracks in the doors. No one is ever seen entering or leaving however. Residents of Northrun have grown accustomed to the mysterious building and pay it very little attention but will talk about it if asked.
