Meskenburg’s ‘Gate’

Description[]

Region: Elumia Proper[]

Chance of Discovery: 8[]

Famed pirate Meskenburg terrorized the sky from 425-437, looting and pillaging both villages and ships. His favorite tactic was to swoop in under cover of a foggy or cloudy night, navigating through sheer gut and grit on his way to the target; once there, he and his scoundrels would overwhelm the surprised group of defenders, snatch everything that wasn't nalled down, and disappear back into the night before reinforcements could arrive. The 'gate' bearing his name near the docks is a remnant of the victory arch Emperor Venito Stormborn put up after the pirate's capture. In a grisly show of strength, Venito Stormborn had Meskenburg hung from the arch after marching him through it. Ironically. Ventto Stormborn was nearly killed the very next year during a victory celebration under the arch when it collapsed during a ground quake. It was never rebuilt, but the local dockworkers made sure to keep some remnant of the arch around, calling it a 'gate' from which Meskenburg's spirit once tried to take its revenge upon Venito Stormborn.
