Loudwater
Town in Southwood, The Western Heartlands · the City of Grottos
Loudwater is a garden city where the Greyflow joins the River Delimbiyr, home of the Green Regents, champions of the forest goddess Mielikki.
The river rushes loudly over stones beside the town, tall trees of the forest crowd close, and elves from the woods trade quietly in the market.

Overview
Loudwater lies at the confluence of the Delimbiyr and the Greyflow, where the river is wide enough for a modest harbour; on our map it stands in the Southwood, with the High Forest to the west. It is home to the Green Regents, the chosen of Mielikki, and the town is a picture of her faith.
The town is a good starting point for adventures in the forest and in the mountains along the upper Delimbiyr.
