Redfaire is a riverside village at the confluence of the Red River and Lyria River where the Old Road forks north to Talonmoor and a side road runs west toward the Barony of Golds; low wooden houses sit on stilts, boat sheds line the banks, and a central green hosts a weekly market.
Where two rivers meet, bargains are struck and secrets float downstream.
