Jörðgarð Maps 513a and 513b bring the PCs in the forthcoming Trailsend adventure to the end of their journey through rebel-held human territory in the undead-ruled Dreadlands. Since leaving Draugsend (the previous maps), they have been straddling the south bank of the Riddle River which is the boundary between the human Dreadlands and the Riddle Forest controlled by Karelenland, which is ruled by the Triple Crown – two elven princes and a dwarven prince. Karelenland has a mixed and integrated population of light elves, half elves and humans. Humans on the Dreadlands side of the river consider the Riddle Forest to be a strange, forbidding and mysterious wood that few non-Kareli will enter. The only crossing is the isolated Riddle Bridge, a strange structure where the human rebels sometimes can meet the Kareli above the river without either entering the other's land. Jörðgarð Map 513b shows the interior of the Riddle Bridge, as strange a place as any other in this strange area. The wooden bridge runs through the house-like structure. A half-high wooden wall runs along both sides of the bridge track. To the left is a stable area complete with hay and straw for visitors' horses. To the right are benches and a table for meetings. There also are heating and cooking stoves. Visitors who need a night's shelter have enough room for their sleeping bags on the floor. Shuttered windows are on both sides of the buildings. Large wooden doors can close the bridge track.
