Bexley

The partially ruined village on Bexley sits astride the secondary road to Oleg Keep. Many of its houses are covered with ivy while the remaining occupants have clustered in stoutly looking buildings near the center of the town. A coach house sits across from a well and still serviceable stables. Near the center of town and just off the main road a three story stone watchtower offering a clear view for a few miles in every direction.

The town boasts a small guard tower garrisoned by 8-12 spearmen who spend most of their time gambling or harassing the travelers. The road to the south of town dead ends and fades out to grassland. A successful DC20 Perception check will notice a trail lead off towards a small rise a few miles to the SW. The Bexley Standing Stones can be found here. The abandoned trail leads towards Whisper Mill and from there to the village of Wanborne.

The Apple Patch Coachhouse

The tavern is a wooden single storey building, with a gray tile roof and simple furniture. The street outside is filled with the smell of damp earth and horse manure while a mangy goat serves as a mascot and greets customers. A low, narrow stables sits across the road behind a well. A small copse of apple trees threatens to overgrow the NE end of the stables, even in these harsh times its covered with apples. Inside the tavern there are many cobwebs in the corners and messy tables covered in cutlery and leftover food.

The owner goes by the name Aldous Accord but his real name is Thriven Dormor a retired assassin who works for the Scarlet Brotherhood.
