====== Hornhelm ======
{{ ::hornhelm.png?400|}}
Nestled along the north-eastern wall of the [[saurian_wasteland|Saurian Wasteland]], Hornhelm is an active village. It is protected by a wall of stacked stones with a large wooden gate as its entrance. The walls are lined with blackberry brambles.

The town square plays host to a thriving marketplace. Many of the shops boast a brightly colored fabric and open store fronts. Music fills the air. The fragrance of roasting vegetables will often tempt passersby to stop for a quick bite to eat. Local villagers mingle with [[saurian_priests|priests]], shopkeepers, and guards.

A large fountain sits in the center of the market. Though water appears to be scarce in the [[saurian_wasteland|Saurian Wasteland]], the fountain spouts water constantly. It cascades over the statue of a long-necked, long-tailed, four-legged reptilian beast.
