![[z_Publish/_assets/Iskavar Isles.png]] # General Select Category: Landmark *Where exiles arrive · in [[2-World/Regions/The Forswept.md|The Forswept]]* Penitent's Landing is a long grey stone pier jutting out of the fog on the northern shore of the Forswept, at the end of the exile ferry's route from [[2-World/Hubs/Scalecross.md|Scalecross]]. It is the first thing every exile sees of their new home, and above its end hangs a weathered wooden sign that reads: *You were weighed.* The pier is the one fixed point on a shore that moves. Islands around it sink and rise, but the Landing has never gone under, and so a ragged little settlement has grown up around it: rope-sellers, guides, fortune-tellers, and people who meet each ferry hoping to sell new arrivals a place to sleep, a map that will be wrong by morning, or a ride to [[2-World/Hubs/Lastword.md|Lastword]]. # Travel | Destination | Distance / Notes | | --- | --- | | [[2-World/Hubs/Scalecross.md|Scalecross]] | A few hours back by the exile ferry, which only sails north empty. | | [[2-World/Hubs/Lastword.md|Lastword]] | Most of a day by raft and plank-road, depending on which islands are up. | # Scene Summary ### The Ferry A flat grey barge poled by two silent knights of the Scales. Exiles sit in the middle with their hands in their laps, palms up, so the grey mark can be seen. ### The Pier Fog. The sound of water under planks. The sign. Then voices out of the fog, all offering something. # Quests - [ ] Find a guide who knows which islands are up today. *(none published yet)* # People The following people are associated with this location. # Encounter Lists any mentioned monsters in this note.
