    Whilst looking for an elven village in Forgotten Vale, I seemed to have misread my map, and stumbled upon a quaint human settlement tucked along a bend in the road. The locals kept their neighborhood very well tended, and while not excessively talkative, they were happy to point me to locations of note within their tidy little town.

    This welcoming arch marked the entrance to the main, winding avenue through what the locals dubbed 'Crooked Shank'. There seemed to be a lot of planting and construction, and truth be told, I could not really tell how old the town was.

    At this point, I wandered into the lovely back yards of some of the inhabitants, and noticed they all seemed to share a penchant for gardening.

    Then, the Mayor of Crooked Shank himself appeared and hurried me away for a visit in his home.

    The mayor then directed me to the lovely Two Fountains Inn, further down the road, though he warned they might not have any vacancies, and thanked me for my brief visit.

    Thanks for following! More soon.

    I hate looking at these previews... it spoils the Friday updates for me, but I just can't help it. Looks good! Can't wait to explore.

    Good call. This almost looks like an in-game screen shot, lol.
