Mega's Landing
Megas Landing is a fishing village with a big secret. Earlier this spring, a wooden box washed up on its shore. In the box were hundreds of diamonds and carved pieces of jade ( most in the shape of odd insects). The villagers assumed that the box had come from a merchant ship carrying exotic cargo that was later sunk (presumably by ores), but have heard no reports of a lost ship nor of anyone claiming to have lost such cargo. They have sat carefully on the wealth so far, but have been pooling together what other money they have in order to dress one of their smarter fellows in clothing suitable for a wealthy merchant ( or perhaps an adventurer), send him to Hardby or @reyhawk, and see about selling some of the smaller items. The townspeople know that the box is worth a fortune and are being very careful to not risk losing it all by revealing their hoard.
