This item has a loresong. This loresong would be of interest to halflings and any who support the cause of the underdog.
A closer look
The small tag attached to this slab of dark grey riverstone identifies it as the doorstep of Predcop Manor, the residence of the last official Warder of River's Rest.
Official documentation
Derep Predcop, the Torren Warder of River's Rest between 4493-97 M.E., is better known as "Mad Derep." One of the most corrupt of the Torren Warders, Predcop amassed a sizable fortune during the Turamzzyrian resettlement program by accepting bribes to evict squatters (known as "river rats") from their small parcels of land and selling that land to the new immigrants. He is said to have gone insane after being cursed by an old widow. After losing his wits, Mad Derep became a figure of scorn and pity in Western Elanthia. He was last seen outside an inn in Tamzyrr, dressed in rags, jabbering incoherently and begging for crusts. His eventual fate is unknown.
