Scalded Market

The Scalded Market is a large open-air marketplace in Drar — one of the most active and crowded parts of the city, packed with stalls, shouting vendors, and travellers from every direction.


Overview

The Scalded Market sits in an open plaza at the heart of Drar’s commercial life. The air smells of exotic spices and smoke from grills and braziers; the noise is constant. The crowd is dense enough that someone could brush against a stranger and disappear before being noticed.

The plaza connects directly to The Dust Bowl, the underground tavern that opens off one of its edges.


Events

  • During Session 61, Dristuul was suddenly flooded with memories — possibly from his childhood — as the party entered the market.
  • Moments later, a figure in a green-brown hooded cloak bumped into him, apologized, and disappeared into the crowd.
  • The figure had slipped a rock wrapped in a written note into Dristuul’s pocket. Only Dristuul knows what it said.
