Random Map Monday 13
A little hamlet in the middle of here and there. A small creek runs through that floods on the north side. A few flood walls were built to redirect the water during the heavy spring rains. There are a few travelers that visit. To the north there are two pitch camps located in the forest. Workers from the camps come to visit Chancey's Pub (the largest building on the map). And once a month, a tinker named Brisco comes through with his cart and a pony named Cheddar. He fixes things for a few coppers and sells random items.
To the east, a low stone wall (4' to 5') surrounds a graveyard. There are a pair of heavy wooden doors that give access to the graves. They are old, but work surprisingly well. There are sixty-two grave markers. Most are low, foot markers that only have a first name crudely etched into the dark granite. There are a few dozen other sites where there looked to have been a marker. The locals stay away from the graveyard. A small shrine (located across the road to the west) with a broken wooden altar still stands. There looks to have been some sort of writing or pictures on the wall, but all have worn off. The locals considered tearing it down, but they fear that they might attract the anger of a sleeping god.
To the south, is the road of many ways. Several other roads split off from it, leading to a dozen other hamlets and villages. It ends at the north gate of Crothia, the only town in the area.
