Overview
The People of the Claw (48.13) attempt to catch any travelers who pass through these parts and feed them to their crayfish god. However, some travelers are well enough armed to make the locals resort of trickery instead of force. This is where the Long Dock comes in.
It is a normal-seeming dock except that it extends a full mile into the muddy waters offshore. The locals attempt to convince travelers to dive off of the end of it while they play their pipes and drums to call their blue whale-sized idiot god to feed. Sometimes they offer their most beautiful maidens to travelers but only after they dive off the end of the dock to purity themselves. Sometimes they stage a tournament of arms and if the travelers win they are offered a great prize but only after they jump off the end of the dock to purify themselves. I think you get the picture.
