Most residents of the region should have common knowledge of the small outpost of Traveler's Gorge. It serves as a temporary resting place for merchants passing through the Dactyl Mountains on their way to, or from, the southern regions. It consists of a few humble prefab shelters, providing a safe place to settle in for the night. Given its location, those traveling on foot or by ground transportation are tasked with either passing through the settlement, or traveling far out of their way to bypass the massive gorge. In recent years, the Gorge has been under the control of the Children of Aite, a loose group of self proclaimed freedom fighters. Prior to their occupation, a group of bandits under the leadership of a man named Santiago Delgado called the Gorge home. The bandits used the Gorge's prime location as a way of strong arming traveling merchants into paying for safe passage, causing many merchants to either invest in other methods of travel, or change their routes. The Children of Aite have worked hard on rebuilding the Gorge's reputation by reaching out to local homesteads and farming communities who once relied on the Gorge to safely transport their goods to population centers on either side of the Dactyls.

Geography

Traveler's Gorge is located in the southern mouth of a pass that slices through the Dactyl Mountains.

History

Traveler's Gorge is a small outpost that serves as a rest stop for those traveling by ground through the Dactyl Mountains. Located south of Freedom Falls, Traveler's Gorge is tucked into the southern mouth of one of many mountain passes through the Dactyls.

There's no concrete info regarding how the old outpost came to be. The oldest of the Gorge's infrastructure- such as the water pump that taps into a subterranean river- look to be of asari make, leading many to believe that the small outpost was originally put there by an asari.

A large statue that stands around 20 feet tall near the inner gate depicting an asari in some sort of ceremonial attire supports the theory of asari beginnings, though whether the statue is supposed to be the original founder of Traveler's Gorge, or the Goddess Athame, is another aspect that's often debated. Many years of harsh seasons, as well as some intentional damage (Including the removal of the statue's hand and head, which now lays at the feet of the statue, little more than a weather-worn ball of stone) makes it difficult to know for sure.

Currently, most of the structures occupying Traveler's Gorge are of human design. A few humble prefabs buckling against the wind. But the occasional patchwork using parts of older structures hints at a time from before the outpost's architecture was so human dominated.

Traveler's Gorge has a bloody history of changing hands. The most recent entry into that storied history came as a result of a raid executed in the middle of the night by the Children of Aite in late 2183, led by Kirill Kozlov. Prior to Kozlov's attack on the outpost, the Gorge remained in the hands of a group of bandits led by a man named Santiago Delgado. Delgado had long used the Gorge's advantageous location to strong arm local merchants into paying for safe passage. Violent and unhinged, the Gorge fell out of favor under Delgado's lead. Kozlov has spent the better part of the past two years doing what he can to rebuilding trust and forge relationships with local settlements in the region in hope of shedding the outpost's old reputation of 'Deadman's Gorge'.
