Odd’s End History
When the crew of the Seabjorn took over the Wharf Rat, early in 591, they discovered that the basement of the Wharf Rat backed up to a portion of the area's underground cairns. Upon clearing what was apparently an intended cave in, they would discover an outlaw refuge still in use. A narrow egress to the fjord in Dragonhome would be located at the far end of the cairn.
Meeting with one of the residents of the area would reveal some interesting history. Most of the burial urns would have long been broken and little more than shards left, but one within the barrow would remain. Curiously protected by various enchantments the urn sat under a stone carved sign which read, “Oddgeirr Cairn-Breaker was here. The End.” So amused were the residents by this that the refuge is known as Odd’s End - which in typical thieve’s cant would be trimmed and obscured into phrases such as “I’ve got some odds and ends to run”, or even more vague “I need you to run some errands”, the emphasis on the last syllable.
While townies knowing of the general presence of such a location being used frequently in the days before the Harrowstorms simply referred to the general underground area as Under-Bottom.
