[Old Ta'Faendryl, Market Road]
Walls surrounding an open plaza to the south run up against higher walls constructed of limestone blocks. A heavy growth of vines and brambles creep along the wall in a dark, tangled mass of thorns and leaves. You also see an Ithzir scout that is lying down, a great white wolf, a greater construct that is lying down and a gleaming steel broadsword.
Also here: Alastir

[Old Ta'Faendryl, Market Road]
Deep crevices running through the dusty surface of the road expose the multiple layers of clay topped with limestone slabs that successive generations of the ancient city's inhabitants used to repair this once busy thoroughfare. A final layer of dirt, laid down by nature, tops the rest like thick icing on a cake.
