Grindel
Grindel is a village located on a small isle in the Bay of Logs, off the east coast of Meyjakh Hwell. Grindel is based on the industry of grinding logs for wood chips, sawdust, mulch, and pulp, utilizing magic and machinery to do so. In recent years, they have developed wood-based products like butcher paper and particle board-like materials useful in construction and a variety of uses. This has brought some success to Grindel, but it tends to be smaller than its two sister villages of Bundel and Plant, which are both closer to the shore towns of Theyvith, Felsuvn, and Southtrees. However, Grindel's modest growth has enabled it to embark on new commercial endeavors related to the well-traveled water route that is is located along. As a result, inns, taverns, pubs, and docks have been built to attract business from sailing merchants that wish to break up the stretch between Briggeton and Hevedberg.
