The Midnight Wharf sits in a small bay in Lyraon, where a quiet fishing village works honestly by day and smuggles by moonlight. Nets, crab pots, and drying racks hide false compartments, while lantern codes guide small boats through fog and marshy inlets.
The people here are not flashy criminals. They are fishermen, widows, sailors, and coastal families who learned that the law cares more about taxes than survival.
Head of Port: Joryn Kettlesalt
A lean human fisherman with sunken cheeks, rope-burned hands, and a voice permanently rough from salt air. He looks harmless until someone threatens his village. Joryn does not brag, posture, or threaten twice. He simply marks a name, waits for the tide, and lets the bay do the rest.
