Leilon
Leilon is a small town off of the High Road, encircled by an earthen rampart and in the midst of rebuilding itself after being abandoned for years. To the southwest, new settlers attempt to build docks for barges, made to cross the marsh and meet merchant ships in the sea.
The settlement had been destroyed and rebuilt many times in its long history, and it is currently in an early stage of a rebuilding period, serving as a convenient resting place for weary travelers making their way to/from Neverwinter and Waterdeep. The people of Leilon are also required to be focused on more immediate dangers, like the abyssal creatures and monstrous undead lairing in the Mere of Dead Men as well as the waves Sahuagin attacks and strange occurrences in the Sea of Swords.
At the center of town, the House of Thalivar, a wizard tower, rises like a beacon, four times the height of every other building. The town lies in ruin, but the settlers from Neverwinter work quickly, clearing and reconstructing.
Leilon was once a mining town that sold copper, nickel, and silver to Waterdeep. It was also a port where merchants sometimes offloaded goods on barges (since most ships cannot pass the town’s shallow mud flats) to be transferred to cities along the Sword Coast. Much of the reconstructed buildings are simple wooden structures using the same materials from the ruined town before.
