The Stone Nest Caravansary
The Stone Nest Caravansary is the new headquarters of the Eagle Brigade, set in the centre of Vansreik. It has only recently opened its doors, and building it drained a considerable part of the guild's funds.1
Who can be found there
Many mercenaries can be found at the caravansary:
- the Eagle Brigade's high commander Donald Whent, and Matias Cain and Nessa Sevenembers;2
- Archibald the Flametamer and Holden Fain, who are also found at the Library of Vansreik;3
- Percival Mill and Zardrak Throneguard, who are also met in settlements of Westreach;4
- Xaman, who is also found at the elven garrison near Vansreik.5
