Diamond Lake
Diamond Lake is decadent and decaying, a town where wealth once flowed freely but now seeps into the pockets of a few, while the rest survive amid mud and smoke. The town is infamous for its rowdy inns, greedy mine owners, and its proximity to ancient burial cairns—sites of adventuring interest.
- Rival mine bosses constantly scheme and bribe to increase their influence.
- Many adventurers use the town as a base for delving into the Cairn of the Whispering Wind and other legendary tombs.
