Brief Description: Heading South from the docks you will be entering The Village of Hofborg, treading upon a cobblestone path. The Village is home to the locals who have grown up in this region as well as Saebjorn crew members who have sprouted new roots. The prominent feature is a towering windmill at the center of town erected by an ancient peoples of ages past. It has since been renovated into a wind powered mill for the processing of wheat and other local grains. Additionally, within the Village is a rustic stone well with a thatched wooden roof near a large statue of the Visage of the Skald. Off to the side, yet within plain view of the general populous, are the stockades where ne'er-do wells who've broken the local laws are detained for all to see and scorn. Continuing onward through the Village the entrance to the Fair Grounds is found under a trellis of bright and colorful blossoms hanging down in a canopy leading the path South.
