Connects to: 03.08, 05.04, 13.02 and the Kingswood.
Set in a rocky plain and reached via a meandering footpath are the fifteen-foot walls of a stout timber fortress which are manned by a group of war-like, xenophobic elves (and their families). Oddly enough, the wood of the fortress is made of cut logs, and the whole structure appears to be fairly new, and very crude-looking.
Though the elves seem in desperate need of supplies, they are unwilling to leave their fort and unwilling to trust outsiders. If they can are befriended, they would be willing to trade for a laundry list of supplies from the trading post (03.08), and willing to pay much coin for wine from Abdul (05.04).
Connections:
- The elves of the Timberlode believes themselves to have been exiled from the Kingswood but this is actually a result of illusions cast over them by the elf who is studying them (13.02).
Hooks
- How did the elves come to be in this fortress, and who built it?
- Why are the elves so xenophobic about others?
