Mogil Bay (Mo-gill Bay)
Sitting just up from Brecksville Bay, Mogil Bay has the advantage of a wide, shallow bay and no large cliffs, so gets a fair number of visitors from the traders plying the coastal routes up from the larger towns and cities of the south to points north.
It is a much safer resupply point than Enthmere, and is growing rapidly since the Thieves Guild took that city over.
It is a welcoming and hospitable town, with several daily markets, a decent sized temple, a wide selection of stores and plenty of taverns and inns.

History
Starting as a small fishing village, once the Great West Road was built between Enthmere and La Liotsound the village grew by leaps and bounds, many of the smaller villages on the Kanab Flats suddenly able to access it easily for quicker access to the valuable coastal trading routes.
It has only grown more in the last 50 years, as Enthmere has become more and more dangerous, and is effectively the main trading port for most of Enth Province now.
Tourism
Sailors and travellers up the Western coast of Daly frequently stop here for rest and relaxation. The wide array of trade goods and unusual foods and beverages flowing through town are appealing enough on their own, but added to the miles of glorious flat sandy beaches of the bay itself and the warm weather, it isn't unusual to find residents of many of the neighbouring provinces taking a tenday in Mogil Bay.
Architecture
Low stone buildings make up the majority of buildings, with wide streets lined with shopfronts and frequent market plazas. This town grew deliberately and with plenty of money, and it shows. Districts are well planned and each building has plenty of space for a small garden or courtyard.
Geography
On the northern edge of Brecksville Bay, Mogil Bay cuts slightly further inland and is situated at the northern edge of Rider Point, past the end of the cliffs. It sits on flat ground at a low elevation on a gentle slope, and has easy access to the sea and beaches. Further inland, it is an easy ride to the Kanab Flats, a vast swathe of uninhabited grasslands.
Natural Resources
Fish, hunting.
