Township of Pellak
Overview
Pellak once was a small farming community resting in the protective shadow of Castle Oversight, the headquarters for the Knights of the Watch in Bissel. It’s location as a stopover point on the Watchtower Road between Thornward and Hookhill soon caused the village to become a significant trading town. Pellak lies along the Sudlor River and is at the end of the March Road from Ebbernant. The grand wall of the city is an impressive 20 feet high. The Grand Pellak Bridge, a marvel of modern engineering, spans the river and is tall enough to allow even some of the taller riverboats to easily pass underneath. The bridge links the two sections of the town. On the north side lie the more recent constructions. To the south is Old Pellak or Old Town, the portion of the town that is the oldest. Old town is heavily steeped in tradition and is the home to many artisans and fisherman as well as the less pleasant elements of urban life. The new town hall building sits atop the tallest hill within the town walls with a number of other government buildings to form Pellak Square. It is hear that official ceremonies and parades take place, especially the knighting ceremonies.Notable Locations
- The Gilded Mermaid: An average fare type inn. It is comfortable but not extravagant. A nice sized hearth warms the common area.
- Twilight Tavern: Located in Old Pellak, The Twilight Tavern is a huge wooden structure. Its midnight blue walls, star-shaped windows, loud patrons and loud music can’t be missed.
- The Black Goose: A small stone inn near the western wall of the city, across from the gardens. It is clean, the food simple, but good, and the master of the inn, a stocky Oeridian by the name of Mervus Heldig, is very friendly.
- The Dragon’s Fire: This is an upscale inn.
- The Golden Truffle: A sprawling luxurious estate, the service here is truly remarkable.
