GAZETTEER · THE MIRRENMERE
Siltmouth
A reed-and-plank fishing village on stilts where the Vellen spends itself into the Mirrenmere, quietly in the Silt Hands' pocket.
Where the Vellen reaches the Mirrenmere it spreads into reeds and silt, and Siltmouth stands on stilts above it. The folk net mudfish, trade quietly with Sresh-Dar, and answer questions about the Hands' barges with a long look at the water.
