The Wash
The Wash is the informal name for the area where the falls crash down, all the way to where things begin to wash up. On one bank Castaway Catch, but on the West bank its just the wash. Here you’ll find The PIT throwing the washed up souls to fight. As well as Concussive Curatives just a little further downstream.
The waterfall crashes down to the north. Anything that has been caught in the river flows here and is stunned, battered, and destroyed. But from time to time, castaway things and creatures survive and gently float in the flotsam and jetsam towards the banks of the river. Visit anytime, but when a trinket is looking for you, this is where it'll be found.
Please note that one should only keep up to two cantrip laden trinkets, if you find another one consider giving it or the one you already possess as a gift to a friendly PC. Note that the Trinket table may not roll unless you are viewing this as the entire article, not just as a sidebar from the map.
