The Faring Folk
Three households guarding Hollowmere's failing bridge before its Book 7 flood reconstruction.
The Faring Folk comprise three distinct households residing near the dilapidated crossing point in Hollowmere. As the valley expands monotonically book by book, they represent a stable element of the growing community settling there.
Their defining historical moment arrives during the spring flood in Book 7 when their aging infrastructure gives way. This event necessitated significant changes to their local landscape and living conditions.
