Standing near the mouth of the Tanu River, Pebble Mill is a miracle of Abarinite engineering. The mill—powered by the Tanu’s tidal bore—gives this small hamlet its name (and purpose) and is the inhabitant’s main source of employment. A few folk also fish the surrounding waters while the children and old folk harvest smoothed stones from the Tanu’s banks for sale to Languard’s artisans. Large smoothed stones end up at Languard’s Great Forge, where they are sized and smoothed by Abarin’s master stonemasons for use in the duke’s cannons. This natural resource makes Pebble Mill valuable to the Nenonens, and the hamlet is under the duke’s direct protection.
