Valhale Tower

This structure is some 55' high, a smaller tower rising Inside the greater at about 35' above the ground. Its entrance is accessible only by going up a curving flight of stone stairs which terminate in a landing about 10' above the ground. The outer door of the tower lowers to form a bridge to the stone landing. There are numbers of arrow slits around the tower, and it has a splay around the base to about 6' height. The lower and upper battlements are machicolated, the merlons being pierced for archery as well. Two men-at-arms watch from its roof. Inside dwell Rufus the fighter, and Bume the magic-user. Both came to Valhale some three years ago, had some considerable success in adventuring, including the defeat of a large bandit force which had plagued Count Dragonherz, and it is rumored that they gained considerable treasure in killing a green dragon which preyed in the hills to the west. It is well known that these two men are tough and very cautious but willing to give some aid to adventurers for a price. Rufus leads a squad of men-at-arms and has been appointed as the overall commander of the village troops as well. These men are friends of all of the important folk in the village.
