Where Seagulls Dare.
At the sea-mouth of the River Reik
stands Marienburg, the world's marketplace: the largest,
richest, most corrupt and most dangerous city-port
in the Old World.
Here, everything is for sale and
nothing is without a price. In the markets and docks,
traders win and lose fortunes over exotic cargos from
every land. Meanwhile, in slum taverns or beside filthy
canals, more sinister deals are done for smuggled
weapons. stolen booty, secrets, loyalties, bodies
or worse. And with the Empire and Bretonnia both eyeing
Marienburg's wealth and location, the city is on a
knife-edge, filled with racial tension, espionage
and fear.
Built on a hundred islands, Marienburg
is home to he richest man alive, the only enclave
of Sea Elves in the Old World, and more gold than
adventurers can dream of. Here on the edge of the
Sea of Claws are so many chances for adventure, excitement
and messing about in boats that even a corrupt local
dock-master couldn't count them all.
