Gorbesh Fortress (Therengia)
This Gorbesh Fortress is found north from Langenfirth, over the bridge and down the first trail in Therengia.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Practice Yard]
The ground in this open square is trampled flat, aside from one young deobar tree which stands in the middle of the yard. Ragged target dummies bearing crude parodies of the guild crests are tied in nooses from a branch.
You also see a narrow ladder and a wooden gate.
Obvious paths: east, southeast, south, southwest.
- This area may often have an open picnic basket of refreshments available.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Guard Tower]
The tower walls are notched and charred, apparently damaged in a pitched battle. Deep gouges along the outside timbers of the guard tower tell the tale of a brutal assault -- one the archers who stood here could not withstand.
You also see a narrow ladder and a battered brass telescope.
Obvious paths: none.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Stable]
Facing out onto the practice yard, these few covered stalls once provided temporary shelter for the mounts of the officers. A few bits of straw are caught in the slats of a hayrack.
Obvious exits: west.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Mess Hall]
Low benches are pulled up to long wooden tables. Some sort of greenish crust stains the tables in spots.
Obvious exits: northeast, east.
- The table here is a donation rack.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Firepit]
Two iron rods ending in hooks are planted in the ground next to a sooty bowl-shaped depression. Judging from the trail of colorful splats and splotches on the ground leading west to the mess hall, this is where the Gorbesh prepared their food.
Obvious paths: north, east, southeast, south, west.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Storage]
Empty hooped barrels are wedged into the corners of the room, nailed to the walls with metal spikes. The ceiling is lined with dozens of hooks. A sign in an unknown language is carved into the wall.
You also see a burning burned fire.
Obvious exits: west, northwest.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Barracks]
The bunks filling the barracks are huge, a testament to the sheer size of the Gorbesh warriors. There is room for little else here, and the occupants must have had to crawl over each other to reach the door.
Obvious exits: northwest.
- The bunk here is a donation rack.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Meeting Room]
High-backed chairs sit around a scarred table. Blobs of candlewax discolor the table and floor, telling the story of long hours spent in planning, lasting deep into the night.
Obvious exits: north, west.
- The table here is a donation rack.
[Gorbesh Fortress, Officers' Quarters]
Rank may have its privileges, but you wouldn't know it to look at this room. A half-dozen cots are lined up neatly, with one table and washbasin to serve all the inhabitants.
Obvious exits: east.
- The table & the cot here are donation racks.
