Mimere
This village on the eastern bank of the Sellen serves as a trading outpost and boasts a sturdy dock, several small shops, an inn, and an alehouse. River pirates have learned not to attack the seemingly helpless village, because at the smallest threat elven warriors descend from the trees like autumn leaves. This is widely known, for Hymbrian custom is to leave one would-be attacker alive to tell the tale, and to leave him with enough scars to convince any audience of his veracity. But for the most part, visitors f ind the elves to be friendly, even convivial, enjoying gossip from other kingdoms and delighting in music, dance, and stories. The alehouse is a lively place and the inn is clean and comfortable. Anyone who slips away from either during the night can expect to be followed by elves determined to ascertain motive and purpose and who are not particular about how they gather this information. The village has shrines to Calistria, Desna, Gozreh, and Nethys; no priest is assigned to look after the shrines, but the faithful in town leave offerings and keep the sites clean, relying on visiting clergy to deal with other spiritual matters.
