The Driftmarket

A hidden black-market under the Siltmouth wharves where the Gaunt Ledger fences Old Work, relics, and worse — bright, busy, and quietly armed.

Lantern-lit stalls on rotting piers below the town, reachable only at low tide and only if someone vouches for you. You can buy anything here and sell things you shouldn't have. Loud with bargaining, warm with lamp-oil and fried silt-crab — and every third trader is a Finder with a knife and a ledger.

  • The ReshiThe Driftmarket runs on Reshi caravans and stalls — road-blood measuring a place by its trade.
  • Ashfall TownThe longest honest haul in the world: the ash road from Ashfall down to the Driftmarket carries glass and bronze one way and water, rope and iron the other. Caravans that make it are rich; most of the waycamps between are graves.
