Wzgórze "Hangside" Places of Interest The most prominent spots of Hangside include the Path of Gold, the Silent Scream Tavern, and the residences of the wealthy. Siedziba Protektorów Ardanyan (dawna wieża Mangalina) Path of Gold A path of white cobblestones runs from the bridge to Eastgate, branching several times to connect the mansions in an elaborate pattern. Founder’s Place In the middle of Hangside, the path runs into Founder’s Place, boasting a large well containing animated water sprites. The center of the well shows a miniature version of Ardanyan, while the well’s outer rim shows ork scorchers mounted on fearsome beasts. The scorchers are held at bay by the water sprites who dance between them and the miniature city. A path runs from the place down to the guarded rear entrance of Council House. Karczma “Cichy Krzyk” – dla bogaczy Standing between the trees close to the Founder’s place, travelers find the best part of town: the Silent Scream Tavern. Exclusive and reserved for only the most influential and wealthiest guests, the usual clientele prefers to remain among their own. No one else could possibly afford the rare delicacies served by the house—the prices are outrageous and fuel a variety of rumors in Landside. The tavern serves as meeting place for doing business, and offers a few guest rooms for that purpose. “Dolina” (Landside) Places of Interest The most prominent spots of Landside include the Passion’s Walk, the Red Raven Inn, the civil quarters, and the guild quarters. Passion’s Walk Between the bridge and the Ring lies the Passion’s Walk and citizens tend to argue if it belongs to Hangside or Landside. The argument has never turned into a serious debate, however. The largest temple is devoted to the Passion Garlen, houses a number of beds for the ill and an alchemical laboratory for producing healing potions, salves and other medicine. Close to the bridge lies the temple of Upandal, whose questors tend to the bridge and collect the bridge toll from anyone passing it. The tolls are shared with the town’s council and invested in the temple’s workshops, who work for free on behalf of the citizens. A number of smaller shrines devoted to the other Passions line the road, usually tended by traveling questors passing through Ardanyan. There are no shrines devoted to the mad Passions. Zajazd “Czerwony Kruk” Close to the river is the Red Raven Inn, offering rooms and a tavern for caravaners and other travelers. Run by the t’skrang Hchal’Tssan, the personnel are rumored to smuggle goods in and out of the town. No one dared to accuse them so far—his personal bodyguard Sant’Zabur is a high-Circle Warrior adept no one dares to mess with. The house was built close to the water, and a small pier serves as a dock for fishing boats and other small ships trading with settlements further down the river. This sidearm of the Coil River is too shallow for t’skrang riverboats. Civil Quarter Apart from the many residences rising upwards throughout the quarter, this part of town also holds the headquarters of the town watch. A part of the building features prison cells, mostly for people who have been sentenced for hard labor. Long-term prisoners are held in the cellar of the Council House. Guild Quarter The guild quarter is called that because most of the Guild Houses stand close to one another. The guilds serve all kinds of interest groups, and most of them fail to have a real impact on the town’s politics. The most prominent building belongs to the Magician’s Guild.
