Stag's Ballad

Centrally located on the vast Great Plains, Stag's Ballad is surrounded by a wooden wall broken only by the river running through it. Music can be heard from nearly every street, as if the winds themselves carry story and song to the ears of the pilgrims, farmhands, and travelers that make up the small city's population.

Stag's Ballad is a settlement centrally located in The Havens. It has a rustic charm, but is kept up by the locals.

History

Stags Ballad was founded after the defeat of Azurphax, when Enam led a party of adventurers (Vaphryn, Palmu, and Talamansi) to rescue Tallstag prisoners from Fjordhaven City and moved them into the ruins of a bandit fort.

It was named Stag's Ballad in honor of Enam, who became a Tallstag after that rescue. He moved there and built up the town, building the Bard's Respite Inn and his wand shop, Enam's Wonderful, Excellent Wands. There he also built a cathedral to Shaundakul, the god of travels and portals.

Stag's Ballad occasionally hosts seasonal events, such as a noble's joust in 1374.
