Greenpool
The village of Greenpool stood for centuries on the rocky cliffs overlooking the ocean at the southernmost tip of Ramthion Island. Not exceedingly prosperous, it nevertheless made a fair trade on its local saltworks and fishing until 3422 I.R. In one night, the waves rose and crashed over the cliffs, though no storm blew them; the earth cracked and opened, though no earthquake shook them; and men fell dead where they stood, though no hand slew them. An unknown doom had come to Greenpool, and when dawn rose red over the town the next morning, not a living soul remained. Over the years, the town has been avoided as cursed, and what few buildings remain have fallen into ruins. The only thing that remains to easily identify the town is the green tidal pool from which it took its name. That strangely deep pond still exists, its waters occasionally rippling even when no wind touches its surface.
