Silverford
Silverford is a small mining town operating one of the few non-Dwarf run mines in Ara. There are many gnomes here, with an interest in machinery to increase mining efficiency to beat dwarves.
The town is mostly collected near where the river widens enough to allow boats to operate. Cart run along a wooden rail or ‘permanent way’ from the mine in the mountain, carrying the silver ore. Here, it is loaded onto small shallow skiffs, whereupon it is transported to Dolon.
The town consists of about 60 small houses (though where the gnomes live is not clear – they keep that quiet). There is a tavern/inn with accommodation. There is a larger building in the centre which serves as a town hall.
The village is dominated by the busy docks where labourers unload ore into boats with waiting boatmen.
A production problem due to a goblin infestation was recently resolved by the Thanes of Order.
