In the late Fourth Age,
Grank's Ten-Foot Pole Emporium was a goods store and trading post located along the
Iron Highway in the
Ruined Coast region of
Gimora.
The shop was first started by an
orc named Grank, who later passed it on to his son,
Graank. In the Fifth Age, a franchise of Grank's was opened in
New Keeleon, called
Gralphank's Ten-Foot Pole Emporium.
Description
The shop was located on the Iron Highway and was situated to the east of the
Crumbling Peaks. It was a structure on the
Iron Highway to the north of the
Dry River Desert, and was a supply station for those looking to cross the desert south.
In the late Fourth Age, the Emporium had several ten-foot poles that had been dug into the ground and extended upwards around the entrance. The interior was a closely packed shop with many baskets and boxes of goods strewn through close-knit aisles.
History
