Weekly Market Building / Landmark in Oerth | World Anvil

Weekly Market

Built up around the first well dug for the fishers in the town's early days, this large square hosts merchants of all descriptions on Starday, which is the first day of the week. Merchants come from Seaton, and Burle to sell their wares. Action starts even before the sun rises as the merchants dicker and bargain amongst themselves while setting up their stalls for the coming day. This market rarely contains anything of significant value, but it often contains wares, equipment, and tools necessary for daily life in the hinterlands. In fact, you can normally find things up to a value of 150gp.
