People

• Elena Delphino - Leader of the merchant consortium

Mirefen Swamp

The Mirefen Swamp is east of the Ith River, south of Port Maraisa. It ends to the east at the foothills of the Omlarandin Mountains. The White Skull are known to frequent this region.

Locations within Southern Beacon Lazaretto

Notes Thick, cool mist is common regardless of day or night. Invasive plants, some native to the feywild, can be found here. Prolonged stays in the Mirefen result in a sense of deep emotional apathy. The Small Brothers gather arcane spell components from its flora.

Mother Laguna

The enigmatic leader of the Laguna-kin and a former member of the Order of Hospitalers according to discovered journals. She is also apparently a powerful ally of The White Skull.

Last reported to be located in The White Skull Fortress.

Northern Beacon

The lighthouse on the northern shore of the river Ith River in Port Maraisa. The Northern Beacon is located on the main square of the merchant quarter, across from the city hall.

The Northern Beacon had a house attached to it, but the house burned down about three years ago when the lighthouse keeper at the time, Agostino Barlucci, apparently started a fire while drunk. The house has not been rebuilt.
