After several days of traveling the path you have been following crosses a stony ridge, leading through a patch of boulders and shrubs that dot the grassy area. Songbirds flitter among the lindens, flickering patches of bright color in the light that filters through the trees and an old man rocks on the porch of a small, clay-and-wood home opposite a small Inn, one eye on his pipe, the other upon you. An open valley lies to the northeast, the rooftops of a small town can be seen clustered in its center, while another trail winds northwest deeper into the mountains.
You also see a small signpost and a wayside inn.

Northeast leads into the lands of Gemstone
Northwest leads into the lands of Dragons Flame.

::The Old man waves at you as you continue on your journey::
