Windhammer SE, Copyright WF Densley 2001 Dismounting from Pallenten you tether her to a nearby piece of exposed timber and begin a quick exploration of the whole toll bridge structure. It is much larger than you first realise, and must have been a very important landmark in its heyday. You give yourself just a half hour to have a look then you must be on your way.
Windhammer SE, Copyright WF Densley 2001 Starting with the east tower you search each of its four levels, finding nothing but dust and great matted curtains of spiderweb. You find however, that the entire structure is very sound. It has all the hallmarks of being Dwarvendim-made, every part of its construction being carved stone, intricately fitted together and reinforced. While you search the remainder of this tower you realise that the future could hold great possibilities for such an abandoned building. You have never had a home of your own and it is accepted throughout Arborell that possession is nine-tenths of ownership. With a few alterations this toll bridge could make an excellent base of operations for an enterprising Dwarvendim such as yourself. Reality does raise its ugly head though, you remind yourself that all you have to do is survive this quest first, and the collar at your neck is an ever present reminder of how unlikely that might be.
Windhammer SE, Copyright WF Densley 2001 The western tower is very much the same as the first, however it has an observation deck on its uppermost level that is still accessible by a spiral flight of stone stairs. Using your sword you cut through the curtains of clinging web that hang all along the spiral course of the stairs. With a few minutes to spare you slash your way up to the high deck. Looking out from its battlements you survey the horizon. You do not like what you see.
