Seastone Outpost

Perched on wind-beaten cliffs above relentless waves, Seastone Outpost guards a vital shipping lane and harbors travelers, fortune-seekers, and those with secrets to keep. Sturdy stone buildings cluster around a beacon-lit watchtower, while salty air buzzes with market haggling and seagull cries. It feels both welcoming and wary, scratched into survival by storms and stories.
