The Last Water Jars
Read Aloud
A stone flies from the broken steps and smashes against the street beside you. Five gaunt scavengers rush from the stalls, grabbing for your food sack and water jars. One points toward the cistern and shouts, "Take what you need, then go!"

Market Lane
Collapsed Market Lane: broken stalls, knee-high rubble, and a clear 25-foot path between buildings.

The Cistern
Dry Water Point: an empty stone basin beside a cracked public cistern.
3
Broken Steps
Rooftop Steps: a broken stair rises 10 feet above the lane, giving attackers a narrow high position.
Terrain Levers
- Kick over the dry-water barrel to create cover and scatter loose planks.
- Cut the hanging awning to block a 10-foot-wide lane.
- Shove the market cart downhill; creatures in its path make a DC 10 Dexterity saving throw or fall prone.
