First Settled in 7 P.Y., Rithwic is one of the youngest Aluvian towns. Originally a small stonemason's hamlet built near a ford of the River Prosper, just downstream from Lake Blessed, it has grown quickly into a thriving boomtown, as it is the gateway to the Sho communities to the south. It once stood on the edge of the Aluvian lands, but the frontier has since moved south to Dryreach, leaving Rithwic more or less unmolested by the Tumerok raiders that harry the hinterlands. In the past year, a second settlement, dubbed East Rithwic, has arisen on the river's other side. | {{Printed Material | ||
