Ilvilli Mine
A silver mine now owned by the Rhymsere Trading Syndicate. Not a source of income or mining.
Defences
Wooden palisade, watch towers, barracks.
Infrastructure
Hard packed dirt roads have since been reduced to footpaths as grasses and small trees have taken the open soil as their own. While it is not hard to follow the old roads to the settlement, few bother and most simply continue on to other stops on the Silver Way.
History
The mine was discovered using dowsing and divining magic. For the first few years it was a thriving mining community that produced a significant amount of the silver now in the world. A few years back though the mine ran dry and was traded off to the RTS in a bad-faith deal. It has since moldered and fallen into decay as no efforts are made to repair or inhabit the outpost.
Now patrols or natives may use the buildings for shelter from time to time.
Architecture
Simple clap-board buildings with wooden shake shingles, weathered and begining to fall apart from disuse and the encroach of nature. Simple bullseye glass panes adorn each darkened window. The buildings are of mostly local softwoods, which have yellowed and warped in the ensuing years of neglect.
Geography
Low in the mountains
Natural Resources
Wood, trace silver.
