Defences

The river on the west side and the one that cuts through the river protects the west side, but the east side only has a wall. It is often jokes about that, in case of emergency, the residents could always jump in the river in the middle of town, because of how close they live to it.

Besides walls, the aforementioned bone weapons could be used in defense.

Industry & Trade

Evening Mill uses its sister village, Novembertown, for imports of bones for their special craft. Then the craft gets exported to various locations to various amounts of currency.

Infrastructure

Evening Mill, like its sister town, has many farms surrounding it. On the west side, the river side, there is a watermill and a sawmill. On the east side, there is a bell tower, a blast furnace, a smithy, and various workshops for the boneworkers and others. Cutting through the middle of town is a split from the river, and various bridges of differing sizes to cross the river. The houses are closest to the that cuts through the middle of the town, splitting it in half.

Assets

There aren't too many exposed valuables, as they are locked away with the food stores in the town hall. However, there is a large, bone sculpture of a bear, expertly crafted, that could fetch a high price.
Unlike Novembertown, it doesn't have a past with vampire hunting, so there aren't as many vampire hunting weapons in Evening Mill. However, there are plenty of bone or bone-infused weapons.

History

There isn't much to Evening Mill. It has and always will be a boneworker's town.

Tourism

Many different sorts visit Evening Mill. People interesting in buying the bonecraft, people interesting in the weapons, and parents that take their children to see how the bonecraft is made.

Architecture

The "skeleton" of most of the houses and buildings tends to be made of bone. The houses are always wood, and the other buildings tend to be stone.

Evening Mill is a tad marshy, because of the two rivers. However, the farmland is lush and flat otherwise. Fresh water comes from both of the rivers.
