Three Rivers
The confluence of the Ice, Wrath, and Savage Rivers forms a triangular peninsula of land that is the site of Three Rivers, the largest settlement in Estenfird. Most of the year, Three Rivers is an almost desolate town, but during the fur trade rendezvous in the spring and logging festival in the fall, the town swells to three times its normal population. Every five years the Althing of Estenfird meets here and brings in more people as the freeholders of the region gather to conduct trade, hear legal cases, and debate critical matters.
As befits a frontier settlement, Three Rivers is one of the better-defended towns in the Northlands. A stout wooden palisade blocks off the landward side, and the militia of the town hirth is one of the most active and best trained in the Northlands. In its short history, giants, werewolves, beast cultists, bandits, vikings, and even a wyrm have attacked Three Rivers. Although the town has been burned to the ground several times, the Althing of Estenfird has consistently voted to rebuild it each time, and even managed to collect enough donations to make it larger and stronger.
