Falcon's Lodge
Falcon's Hunting Lodge, nestled in the heart of Neverwinter Wood, stands as a bastion of rustic living and outdoor expertise. Operated by Falcon the Hunter, this lodge is a favored retreat for nobles from Neverwinter seeking the thrill of the hunt under Falcon's expert guidance.
Location and Facilities
The lodge is equipped with all the necessary comforts for a wilderness retreat, including a main house, a guest house for visitors, a stable house with a smithy, and livestock pens. Despite its secluded location, Falcon ensures a season's worth of provisions are always stocked, supplemented with fresh game from the surrounding forest.
Falcon: The Hunter and Guide
Falcon, a man who shuns city life for the simple pleasures of the wild, is known for his survival skills and knowledge of Neverwinter Wood. His disdain for urban living is matched only by his hospitality towards visitors, offering lodging and dining at no charge, with a private room available in the main lodge for those desiring more comfort.Staff and Daily Life
Falcon is assisted by his two retainers, Corwin, an elderly and world-weary cook, and Pell, a mute twelve-year-old stablehand. Both contribute to the smooth running of the lodge, ensuring guests are well-fed and cared for.
Recent Concerns: The Orc Threat
Falcon has recently turned his hunting expertise towards dealing with scattered groups of orcs setting up camps in Neverwinter Wood. Despite warnings from Corwin about potential retaliation, Falcon has persisted in hunting these orcs, adding their heads to his trophy hall as a stark reminder of his prowess and intolerance for orcish encroachments.
The Lodge's Role and Offerings
The lodge serves not only as a hunting retreat but also as a sanctuary from the dangers of Neverwinter Wood. Falcon's guests can experience the forest's wild beauty while enjoying the safety and expertise provided by Falcon and his staff.
"These orcs, creeping into our woods, think they can claim it as their own. But Neverwinter Wood has its guardians, and I'll ensure these brutes learn that the hard way. In my forest, it's the hunter, not the invader, who prevails."
