Tempest Harbor: The main pirate town, known as Tempest Harbor, is a bustling port nestled within a natural harbor, hidden from the eyes of casual passersby by towering sea cliffs. This town is the heart of pirate activity in the Bolted Border.

Harbor Activity: The harbor is always alive with activity, from ships docking to merchants trading in illicit goods. The docks are lined with taverns, inns, and brothels, catering to the rough and ready pirates and mercenaries. Known to house the hideout of The Silent Pledge.

Underground Passages: Beneath the town, a labyrinth of underground passages and tunnels snake through the rocky foundation. These passages connect key locations, allowing for swift and secret movement of goods and people. The passages are also frequented by thieves and assassins, making it a perilous network for outsiders to navigate.

Black Market: In the depths of these underground passages lies the infamous Black Market, where anything and everything can be bought for the right price. This is a favored haunt for rogues and those dealing in contraband.
