Kislov's Trading Post
Current Month: Julwar 2nd: 209, The Fifth Age
''This abandoned border fort at the western coast of the dales has found new life recently. Kislov and Svetlana Novakov, a couple from Senderfall, rebuilt it into a trading post, which is now one of the few hospitable shelters for travelers passing through the area.''
Kislov's Trading Post is a small shop in the wilderness run by Kislov Novakov and his wife Svetlana. It is located at the top of a hill.
It is an old army post that was taken over by trolls. When the trolls disappeared, Kislov moved in and took over the building with the help of a contingent of soldiers who assisted in rebuilding. The soldiers, however, were called back to The Aurumfels.
A relief contingent was supposed to arrive, but an early winter kept them sheltered in New Carmile.
Bandits harassed the Post in the colder months until adventuring groups from New Carmile managed to fend them off, a tale which Kislov never tires in hearing or retelling to passing travelers. It is a tale that grows in its myth with each hearing.
Currently, the post is growing in size as locals and travelers have begun to set up shop near the post, in the hopes of benefiting from its wooden post walls in case of danger. Soon it may well become a village, much to Kislov's chagrin.

Inside the Palisade there are three buildings; a stable, a guesthouse, and a two-story shop, the bottom story serves as both a shop and makeshift tavern, and the top story is reserved for Kislov and his wife.
