The next hour and a half are uneventful, then finally, Artonsamay River is spotted. It is known to be one of the longest rivers on Oerth. Following the line of the road ahead, everyone sees the small settlement known as Artonsbrueck, or Peiper's Ferry. It appears that the settlement consists of one small, walled compound encircling four stone buildings. The compound sits on a rise about 25 feet above the river, which has several rafts pulled up on the muddy shore. short, wide docks are built onto each river bank, the far side dock looks to be a little but upstream from this sides.
A few small buildings, more sheds than anything else, can be see on the far side of the river, about 50' away. A couple of boats can be seen on the water, one a ways upstream buy a quarter mile or so, and another about a quarter mile downstream of the ferry, both traveling downstream, the easy but steady current pushing them.
Not much detail can be gotten from this distance, but there is smoke lazily drifting out of several visible chimneys. The stout wooden gate of the compound is closed tightly. All the brush and trees between the compound and the river has been cleared and kept clear, though there does appear to be a small apple orchard out behind the buildings with a lone, ancient oak tree beyond. Trees and brush line the river on both sides away from the ferry area, though it is clearly a well maintained river crossing.
OOC
You're probably 1/8 of a mile from the ferry. No sign of any people yet, they are probably behind the walls. Definitely does not look like it's been attacked.
