The Dessarin Valley

The trail ran parallel to the west bank of the River Dessarin , passing between the Stump Bog and the Sarcrag .

Goldenfields , nicknamed the Granary of the North , was a walled abbey to Chauntea of spectacular scope and size. It was the most prolific provider of crops, grains and fruits to the people of the North .

The Forlorn Hills was a hilly region in northwest Faerûn between the Dessarin Valley and the Delimbiyr Vale.

The town of Red Larch was a waystop on the Long Road seven days north of Waterdeep , and was located at the intersection of three trails. One trail led to the Bargewright Inn , another to Kheldell , and the third ran into the hills to derelict, monster-infested keeps. The town was named for a stand of red larch trees that were chopped down about the time of the town's founding.

Womford was a tiny village on the banks of the River Dessarin in the late 15 th century DR . It was formerly known as Ironford , a bridge that crossed the Dessarin. It was a part of the Iron Road .

Bargewright Inn was a hilltop settlement on the River Dessarin in the Savage Frontier that grew up around the inn of the same name . In the mid-to-late 14 th century DR , it was not a true village nor even a hamlet, but rather an assemblage of businesses that had based themselves at a vital crossing to service travelers and later farmers and ranchers who had settled along the river's west bank. These made it an important wayside hub and sanctuary for travelers of all sorts. In the late 15 th century DR , it remained much the same, but a much larger and full-fledged settlement.
