DRELLIN’S FERRY

At the spot where the Dawn Way crosses the Elsir River, stands the small town of Drellin’s Ferry, once known as Dwarfbridge. As the old name implies, long ago the Elsir River was spanned by a sturdy dwarf-made bridge at this spot, but a hundred years ago the bridge washed out in a great flood. An enterprising man named Drellin, hammered together a small horse-drawn ferry to maintain a river crossing here, and a town eventually grew up around the enterprise. This is the largest of the towns that stretch westward from Brindol along the Dawn Way. There has been talks about constructing a new bridge, but those talks have stopped, as the budget costs are more than the town can handle.
