 +==== Legacy of Marak ====
 +
 +In teh [[campaigns:​Legacy of Marak]] campaign the gang territory of the [[orgs:​Shakker'​s Gang]] was destroyed by a necromantic Ice Giant. A few days later [[people:​Queen Mirasandoral|Queen Mirasandoral'​s]] presence was felt over the city and a large faerie circle of small trees and ferns appeared in the [[#Temple District]]. A large religious mob led by [[people:​Father Karl]], [[people:​Quilate]],​ and [[people:​Keribrar]] marched through city to newly consecrated ground for [[lore:​Techiuan]]. They have called for the destruction of all those who seek dominance over their brother.

 Surrounded by a dense [[wp>​subtripical]] rainforest (i.e. jungle) and located less than 100 km north of the great [[atlas:​Hurzan swamp forest]]. All of the city was originally constructed on a large [[wp>​basalt]] rockshelf that shears slightly upwards pointing towards the [[atlas:​Blackthorn Mountains]]. This shelf peaks 20 meters above the ground. Surrounded by a dense [[wp>​subtripical]] rainforest (i.e. jungle) and located less than 100 km north of the great [[atlas:​Hurzan swamp forest]].

 +==== Gesalt River ====
 +
 +The [[atlas:​Gesalt River]] has its headwaters at a small lake immediately where the southeast corner of the shelf rises. This river is what cut off the [[#​Waterdeep]] district from the rest of the shelf. It then begins to flow quickly in a southwesterly direction until it empties into the [[atlas:​Flumen dei Animas]] (River of Souls).
 +
 +Two unusual facts about the river. Far too much water runs out of the headwaters to be explained by the amount of water that flows downstream. Second, when it passes through the chasm that divides the city most of the water flows up over the chasm walls. Most of the water flows over waterdeep and them cascades in a waterfall over the southern edge, but some of it flows up into the city proper where sluices in the stone carries it to grates in the fountains.

-Running east to west up the shelf is one of the nicer districts in Fountainhead. Comprised of the most skilled craftsmen and even a few people who claim lineage of nobility. The district is all newer construction and while not as solid as the [[#Temple District]] the buildings are solid and the tradesmen well cared. This is a very isolated community where strangers are encouraged to move along rather than dawdle. Get your business and then get out.+[[atlas:​Crofterton,​ Fountainhead|Crofterton]] sits near the upper-middle of the shelf is one of the nicer districts in Fountainhead.
