NPC: Klorte Hengus
The Otari Mill is known locally as the Giant’s Wheel, as its towering, 30-foot-diameter waterwheel is truly a sight to behold. The wheel’s immense size is needed to generate enough torque to power the mechanized treadmill loading logs into the flume and keep the saws running within the mill. The mill is a noisy place, with the constant grinding and churning of the wheel itself competing with the whine of the saws and the clatter of the loading ramp.

Rowdy Rockfish
Address: 50 Zarmavdian Street
Services:
NPC: Brelda Venkervale
Despite its name, The Rowdy Rockfish is the quietest and quaintest of Otari’s taverns. A sign depicting a rockfish with his fins up in a boxing pose hangs above the door of this two-story wooden structure, but within, the calm demeanor of its patrons leads some to wonder if this might be the one tavern in the Inner Sea to never host a barroom brawl.

Several employees and a few visitors from out of town perished in the accident, and the tavern’s owner has gone missing. Today, the locals avoid the ruins, for strange lights and eerie sounds there have given the place a reputation of being haunted.
Wrin’s Wonders
Address: 60 Osprey Street
Services:
NPC: Wrin Sivinxi
This curio shop bears no sign, but locals know it as Wrin’s Wonders: a place to marvel at whatever strange new trinkets and offerings its equally strange owner might have come across. The structure consists of a ring of what appear to be standing stones arranged in a 60-foot-diameter circle surrounding a 15-foot-high dome of wooden beams covered with triangular pieces of canvas. Closer inspection of the standing “stones” reveals that they are also made of wood frames and canvas, cleverly painted to resemble granite.
