Shearingvale - Roaringbridge House

Built in NR677 (30 years ago), the Roaringbridge House is a rough and rugged inn and waystop a stone's throw from the bridge that gives the inn its name. Food and drink are plentiful if not especially good, the rooms are comfortable enough, and the rates are cheap.

Innkeeper Garrick the Loud loves a good joke and a good fight, but if you break anything you pay for it, and then you sleep in the barn. The Roaringbridge House caters to adventurers, and also has what amounts to a general store for adventuring gear (rations, torches, lanterns, oil, rope etc...).

Adventurers passing through are invited to sign Garrick's "Book of Names", a massive hidebound tome containing a great many names. One wooden wall of the common room is known as the Wall of Heroes, and contains the names of those in the Book who are known to have died or been killed. There are also a great many names carved on the Wall.

The Roaring Bridge - This forty foot long bridge spans a rocky chasm over the Perla Stream, a few miles above where it join the upper River Greve (~7 miles east of Grainger). The bridge gets its name from the constant roar of the water cascading over a series of small and medium sized waterfalls 20-30 feet below. The bridge itself is a wide wooden structure built on the stone piers of a much older bridge. There is an ancient elm tree that towers over the eastern end of the bridge. Adventurers often leave offerings to Asturia (goddess of luck, prosperity and good fortune) at this famous old tree.
