[ ❇ ]  T H E  S H A T T E R E D  S H O R EThe shoreline of Hallowstone lies to east, running from the mountains and deep into the bogwood. It used to be a populous place, filled with much trade and commerce in days of old. This all changed when the region was subject to the wrath of the gods, and shattered by flaming rocks from the very heavens. Now, the Shattered Shore is a begotten memory—a place sealed away by jagged, deadly rocks and treacherous pirate coves. For those willing to risk life and death, however, countless relics and ancient treasure from ages past still remain hidden away ripe for the taking.

Fogtide HarborFogtide Harbor, or more commonly just Fogtide, is one of the few true harbors among the Shattered Shore. Led by House Ashecroft, it is a vital port not only for the shore but all of Hallowstone, and in turn is a frequent target of pirates and those from beyond the fog. The people here are a hardy, martial folk; their castle walls lined with entrenchments as much as their coffers are filled with gold.

Barrow HallDescended from bogmen, Barrow Hall is a odd place among the Shattered Shore. House Barrow and their people have manufactured dugouts across the countryside.

RavencrestTBD.

DusklightGod-fearing and spiritual, House Godwin has made their seat of power a home for lost travelers and priests alike. It is a place of learning and religion, with numerous libraries and temples dedicated to the gods and the pursuit of knowledge. A light in the darkness, one might say.

It never seems to stay in one spot, and few know of what secrets lie within. Even the villagers know better than to wander too close to the spire, lest they subject themselves to whatever stories they might've heard.
