Balenpost

Balenpost is a small outpost and research facility controlled by the Cerberus Assembly on the island of Foren in Eiselcross.

Description
The Cerberus Assembly refers to Balenpost as being the Dwendalian Empire's central outpost in Eiselcross, but it is actually run and controlled by the Assembly alone.

Balenpost consists of a ramshackle wooden fort located on the southwestern shore of Foren. The fort has a 10-foot-high wall of frozen logs running around its perimeter, with a seaside gate leading to the small docks.

History
Balenpost was constructed by the Cerberus Assembly to scour Eiselcross for Aeorian artifacts. Expedition crews who return with such relics are rewarded, while those that only return for resupply have their pay docked until they return with with a find.

While the Cerberus Assembly is in charge of Balenpost, the Dwendalian Empire Crown wants to make sure its interests are protected. King Bertrand Dwendal knows that the Assembly isn't keeping him entirely informed, and has placed a number of spies within the outpost to keep an eye on the operations.
