Venger's Decks - Heskel's Crossing

Heskel's Crossing - A slow-moving river cuts through this otherwise silent hamlet, the throes of winter very much leaving its mark on the snow-covered streets, foliage, and buildings. A lone crossing spans the river, known locally as Heskel's Crossing after a poor soul who sacrificed his life by leaping from the bridge generations ago to save his pet dog, the bereaved dog having then spent the rest of her life sitting by the bridge until old age took her into the eternal night. Some say when the light breaks through the trees, a spectral vision of the man and his dog can be seen walking at peace across the bridge.
