A waterside village where the river curves sharply through a grove of ancient willows. Merrow Bend's residents are herbalists and fisherfolk who supply Drelmere with medicinal plants. The bend in the river traps fog on most mornings, giving the village an ethereal, half-dreamed quality. Within the Bellroot Vale, this site sits in the wider network of villages, ruins, and Pattern-touched places that radiate out from Drelmere and Bellroot Crossing. The Vale's relative stability since the Second Shard was recovered from the Bell Tree is felt here, but the Loosening and the Fray still leave their fingerprints — old paths that no longer match the new ones, names half-remembered, the occasional warm wind out of the wrong season.
