Mossrock

Mossrock is a small, isolated countryside village with a very damp climate. The village's mayor is Bidon, a gray, portly tomcat.

A strong light piercing the mist, a kind of meowgic lighthouse, guides visitors to the village. At the entrance, a rickety sign welcomes them.

The dwellings are modest and few. They are built from salvaged materials of the old times (sheet metal, wire mesh, breeze blocks) and from a fine dark stone quarried a few kilometers away. Thick moss and greasy lichen partly cover the buildings, a sign of the damp climate.

A modest tavern, the Lantern Inn, takes up a whole side of the central square. Its powerful lantern, fixed to the gable, guides visitors through the mist: two ancient truck headlights set into an assembly of salvaged cables, enchanted and powered by ancient meowgic. The Ombrumes gave it to the village's first inhabitants.

A knoll rises a little apart above the village. It bears a large run-down building, the Ombrume Manor, almost invisible in the fog: little more than its roof can be made out.
