Rappan Athuk: Adventures in Zelkor's Ferry (5e)
Danger Awaits on the Other Side of the Ferry
The infamous reputation of Rappan Athuk¸ the Dungeon of Graves¸ is well earned. Legions of audacious adventurers against the foul and and the most dangerous denizens of the grand dungeon¸ lured by the promise of riches¸ fame¸ or some more visceral need¸ with scant few of them surviving to tell the tale.
Zelkor's Ferry is the last reasonable stop for downriver traffic to make a safe landing¸ so although the settlement is small¸ and the river traffic is infrequent¸ barges and keelboats do arrive here from time to time¸ off loading cargoes bound for the Round Coast. The last leg of the journey overland to the Round Coast is quite dangerous¸ requiring guards.
The settlement itself is little more than an inn¸ a smithy¸ a merchant trader¸ and a ferry boat for those who desire to cross the river. Nevertheless¸ Zelkor's Ferry is a place of comfort and safety compared to the ravenous wilderness that surrounds it.
