Serpent Point’s renowned shipwreck. It serves as a reminder to passing ships of the terrifying reputation the Point has.

For ages, Serpent Point has struck fear into the hearts of sailors and foreign traders alike. Because of rumors surrounding it, ships avoid Serpent Point, which has attracted a large amount of smugglers.

Rumors first sprouted when a trade ship from Fort Sakura crashed against the rocks during a treacherous thunderstorm. As the winds echoed through the caverns, they produced an ear-piercing hiss that mimicked a sea serpent. The crashing waves threw large pieces of undersea vegetation across the ship, and created a convincing serpent in the darkness. When the soaked and worn survivors wandered into a nearby inn, the story quickly spread throughout the region. There wasn’t a barkeep around who hadn’t heard the tale at least once.

Using the rumors to their advantage, smugglers set up a depot for smuggling goods in and out of Fort Sakura. The smuggling depot, which has gained the nickname “The Serpent’s Den” after the story and the presence of a docile, aquatic snake, manages and organizes shipments. Currently, a few smugglers live in the den to ensure its safety and keep the terrifying reputation alive.
