Riverton
Riverton is a small out of the way village that doesn't see too many visitors. The people living here like their privacy and are known for being weary of any outsiders that visit the village. Mostly a human population with some different races mixed in, no imperial barracks but the imperial guards do patrol this village occasionally due to rumors of protestors being in this area.
This simple river village is self-sufficient so not much trade going on with them to the other locations, but they are known for importing cheaper ales from the nearby towns. Besides the river which the town was built on, it's completely surrounded by wilderness, including wild plains and forests. Most of the residents here value their privacy, distrust strangers and prefer being left alone all together. They also don't take very kindly to pro-imperial types, not causing any troubles with the imperial guard that come through on patrol but always happy to see them leave.
Some of the residents from Shivershire will travel down river, trading wine & ale for Riverton’s pipe tobacco. The pipe tobacco grown here is a strong, hearty tobacco packed with flavor with a rich woodsy aroma to it. The Empire is still working on having Riverton sign contracts with them to export this tobacco, but the village will not agree, simply stating they do not have enough to export. Those visiting here normally buy tobacco and salted river fish from them before leaving.
Recently there has been some rumors going around that some of the hunters have discovered a lost forest ruin somewhere in the area of Riverton, but these rumors are being heavily denied by the residents. Even without the rumors, it's noticeable in town that residents are starting to buy up mining equipment, gear and other necessities that would be required for underground exploration. It is believed that the Imperial Intelligence division is keeping a close eye on this village, but of course the Empire denies all of that and reminding citizens that there is no Imperial Special Operations and its nothing more than silly conspiracy theories being spread by drunken people with nothing better to do.
It is cautioned that if visiting Riverton, do respect their privacy and they should not stay any longer than necessary. Residents are known for responding poorly to questions and strangers that they do not know. There is a tavern located here where travelers can rent rooms, but they do not allow rooms to be rented any longer than three days. Preferring that visitors get their businesses done quickly and leave as soon as they can.
