Amrin Estuary

Far south of Bard’s Gate, where the Great Amrin River meets the sea are the brackish waters of this massive estuary. Nearly a sea in its own right, the estuary runs more than 400 miles to the east and is more than 50 miles wide at its mouth. The estuary is controlled at the western end by the city of Eastgate, a trade haven that dominates the waters and exerts control on the surrounding lands through the copious coin of Bard’s Gate. Its eastern end is commanded by the citadel and naval base of Telar Brindel.
The southern banks of the estuary are fertile, rolling lands ruled by local Estuary Lords that pay at least lip service to the lord of Eastgate, while the north bank is largely occupied by the treacherous marshlands that lie adjacent to the ill-rumored Forest of Hope.
Bard’s Gate’s administrative interests are managed out of Eastgate by an appointed Commissary, Lord Lurmis Vergen. Its naval interests both in patrolling the estuary and to points farther abroad are administered out of Telar Brindel by the Bard’s Gate Office of the Admiralty and commanded by Admiral Sir Gowan Maulwin.
