# Creator's Landing
|
|
|
|
Creator's Landing is a small coastal town that happens to be one of the main ports of the island. It has some local significance that gives residents pride in their town, but it is not a very popular destination on its own.

|
## Flavor text
|
|
|
|
You step off the boat and look out at the area below, the smell of salt still in the air. You see Creator's Landing, the port city of the province of Usill. Hundreds of people work and live here, helping in their own way to help the city work in harmony. There is a small house to the left that has a golden star over the door. There is a path in either direction leading to separate parts of the downtown area.
|
|
|
|
## Upper Downtown
|
|
|
|
Upper downtown has some of the most popular shops in Creator's Landing. There is a blacksmith, an alchemist and an enchanter. The hustle and bustle of the civilians and merchants creates a happy yet chaotic vibe.
|

|
|
### Besla's Furnace (Blacksmith)
|
|
|
|
You enter Besla's domain. She is an older Cetacean blacksmith, but she still has a knack for forging the finest weapons and armor out of things that others would discard. She is a master at her craft, and the walls of the shop are decorated with weapons of every kind. You can hear her banging away at a molten sword.

|
|

|
### Administrative Building
|
|
|
|
The administrative building is here, it stands tall and proud. There are flags for both the Cetacean Hedgemony and for the province of Usill flying in front of it. The town premier is standing outside the front of it, sadly sighing and looking like something is very very wrong.

### The Church of Divae
|
|
|
|
This church was established in the honor of a legendary hero named Divae that managed to ascend to godhood, if the legends are to be believed. The church has stained glass murals of important events in Cetacean history: the creation myth, the story of finding the island, the taming of the sharks, the airships from the north and so many others. There is a cleric that is willing to help answer questions.
|
|
|
|
The cleric here is a quest giver for investigating the sewers for a monument to Nelo beneath the town. It's been rumored this exists, but nobody has really found any evidence of it. Maybe you will change this. Whoever find this monument will help save the island.
|
|
|
|
## Sewers
|
|
|
|
The sewers of Creator's Landing have a notable but ignorable smell. There are goblins, rats and more.
|
|
|
|
There is a goblin hideout here, they are feeding the rats corrupted strength potions and making them angry. They completely avoid the monument though, almost like an instinctive fear.
|
|
|
|
The star denotes where the main plot of the campaign gets told, visit from the goddess Divae that tells of eight kingdoms on the island that have all fallen into various kinds of disorder and chaos. Help them and get their heart-gems to place in the eight slots. The first slot is a gem that belongs to the Miau. Have the goddess bless the party and answer any questions.
|
|
|
|
> Travelers below heed this tale: recover the eight hearts of legend and restore the island to harmony. I am one of the heroes of the island, my power is weak, but I have enough to get you this message. Help us. The Miau in the desert have suffered for so long under the threat of sandstorms cutting them off from us all. Help them and you help us all. The island is more powerful than you think. Your magic may be strong, your courage may be placed in the right hands, but this will be your ultimate test. Come back with the heart and I will give you some of the island's power.
|
|
> Please help me. I want to see this succeed.
|
|
> I'll be here waiting for you. If you need to reach out to me, head to a statue and speak my name into it. I will show up to give you guidance. My power is limited, so please do not use this frivilously.
