Tollvarn

Profile

Description:  Tollvarn sits on the Tally Way. The village square is overgrown. A cracked brass bell hangs over damp cobbles. Several timber houses are roofless and open to the weather. The Ledgerhouse—an iron-banded toll and record hall—leans behind swollen doors. Just outside town, a broken stone arch from the road points into empty air where a bridge once reached the heights. Idle sky-cranes stand over puddles with frayed ropes. Crows pick through scraps. When the cloud cover breaks, a torn length of anchor chain can be seen trailing down from the sky.

The Tally Way runs through the village. Eastward it climbs toward Drasilgard, capital of Yggdravia and seat of the stone giants. Westward it goes to Steelheim at the border with Lemuria, then continues across the westward roads to the coast and ends at Waterdeep.

Before the break, caravans moved in both directions—human merchants from Yggdravia’s western marches trading with Drasilgard. Tollvarn rang its bell for each passing caravan and collected dues at the Ledgerhouse. After the giantlands tore free and remained aloft, the bridge failed, the eastern route was cut, and traffic collapsed. Most residents left, some for Lemuria to the west and some for Barovia to the north. A few families remain and maintain what they can. There is occasional talk of naming a local ruler and declaring a small kingdom, but most people focus on getting through the season.
