Broken Mast

A dockside tavern in Virelay built around the actual mast of a shipwreck that punched through the floor during a Fray-storm and was simply left where it landed. The Broken Mast leans noticeably to one side and its floorboards creak with the tides. Regulars swear the mast hums during storms. Along the Virelay Coastlands, this site is part of the lattice of harbours, bell-towers, and salt-marshes that look toward Virelay and the Underwater Well. The sea here remembers more than the maps do; the Loosening lives in the fog. House Thorne's trade lines once stitched these settlements together — some of those routes are still walked, others have gone quiet since the Fray reached the coast.
