Cha'walkas Piers
Positioned at three spots along the shore of the Cha'walkas lake of Aesry Surlaenis'a, these piers serve as docking points for the currachs that allow visitors to reach the tiny island of Tethloren.
While their primary function is simply as docking points, two of the piers also boast other important details. The Eastshore Pier provides visitors with both fishing poles and bait free of charge, while the Southwest Pier has a set of steps which lead to a location where strength can be trained.
For more information on how to use the currachs to travel, go to their individual pages: Currach, Blue currach, and Weathered currach..
[Pier, Northwest Shore of Cha'walkas]
The dark wood of the pier glistens with slick wetness. Waves churn underneath as the lake sloshes against unseen rocks, and the cloudy mist drifts to hover low against the surface of the water. The temple built upon a small rocky island in the center of the lake is visible above the lingering fog. You also see a weathered currach.
Obvious paths: northwest.
[Pier, Southwest Shore of Cha'walkas]
New planks replace those that deteriorated past safety, giving the pier a patched-up look. The grass lawn that grows close to the shore runs right up to the first boards of the pier. Salt-encrusted pilings support the structure, and gentle waves foam and splash below. You also see a blue currach and some steps.
Obvious paths: southwest.
[Cha'walkas, Beside the Pier]
At the shore beside the salt-encrusting pilings of the dock, several sailors cluster about a stained wooden sign, arguing over who has seen the worst storm. A small two-man boat is tied to the pier, a set of oars inside. You also see some steps.
Obvious paths: none.
- Strength training is done here.
[Eastshore Pier, Liva'an Cha'walkas]
The pier extends from the shore into the lake. Tendrils of cloudy mist swirl delicately and rise from between the slatted wooden boards underfoot. The rough wood is weathered and salt-stained, but in good condition. Some old ropes hang from pilings, remnants of boats once tied here. You also see a currach, a barrel of fish bait and a barrel of fishing poles.
Obvious paths: east.
