Cat’s Wife
This quaint little village lies not far down a little-used side trail off the King’s Road midway between the Gundlock Hills and the Gaelon River. It is a pleasant farming community that does some small trade with the travelers of the King’s Road. It also has a small local river that happens to be one of the few stretches of waterway in the region capable of supporting fishing year-round. The villagers proudly point out that their village is named for the well-known fable about Cat seeking a wife and take great delight in putting the image of a cat in all of their decoration. Some scholars who have studied local folklore, however, think that the tale refers to actual incidents involving some sort of werebeast and is connected to a string of disappearances of young women that occurred in the area over two centuries ago. Whether the villagers know anything about that matter is open to conjecture, but if so, they do not let on about it.
