Windhammer SE, Copyright WF Densley 2001 With the expanses of the marshlands on your right you follow the contour of the terrain and swiftly make your way southwards. You pass many an abandoned building, old farmhouses, decrepit sheds and long lines of crumbling stone walls. All are the remains of a number of unsuccessful attempts to settle the fringes of the marshes. Almost a century ago the wetlands began to expand, and with no way to stop their advance they quickly covered most of the farmlands making them uninhabitable. Entire villages were swallowed and most now lie either beneath the swamps or lay decaying within its borders. Although the growth of the marshes ceased some time ago nobody has been foolhardy enough to try and resettle these lands. They remain a natural wilderness that men avoid and legends have ensured will remain untroubled.
Windhammer SE, Copyright WF Densley 2001 Riding on you find Pallenten has no difficulty avoiding the numerous patches of damp ground. The edges of the Faeron are a patchwork of wet and dry, clearly identifiable by the subtle changes in the grasses and brush that lie within them. As long as you remain focused on these changes in the terrain you should have no difficulty avoiding any dangerous areas at the marshes border. It is as you search the way ahead that you spy two distinct sets of bootprints, running parallel to the marshes before veering of quickly to the south-east.

Do you want to stop and have a closer look at these prints? If so turn to section 331. If you would rather move on instead. Turn to section 342.
