Along the Spice Road, Travelers' Rest is an occasionally inhabited outpost of civilization in otherwise uninhabited country. It is a circle of fire pits and crude stone shelters, at the edge of a stand of hardy old trees (supporting some game, and providing firewood), overlooking a dramatic stretch of the River Ra as it plummets 1000 vertical feet in just over a mile on its way into the desert.
For caravans headed west, Travelers' Rest is the first source of abundant clean water after a several-hundred mile trek, and the beginning of significant altitude gain headed into the Forgotten Hills.
For caravans headed east, it is the last chance to rest and fill canteens before heading out into the arid desert.
