[The Crossing, Town Green North]
A small path of bent grass leads to a narrow stretch of cobblestones between the grass and the privet hedge that stands before Milgrym the Weaponsmith's.  The town's main source of serviceable arms, Milgrym does a good trade and has a solid reputation.  The stream of customers, though steady, seems careful not to disturb the usual tranquility of the facing greensward.
You also see a public listings board and the town green pond.
Obvious paths: north, east, southeast, south, southwest, west.

You limp southeast.
[The Crossing, Town Green Southeast]
This tranquil corner of the Green has a small bower of entwined modwyn vines, laden with tempting, grape-like clusters.  A limestone bench and some sawed-off sections of trees that serve as rustic stools make up an open-air performance space, where bards, musicians and poets can demonstrate their talents.
You also see a waste bin, a grass path leading behind the amphitheater, the Amphitheater gate, a gilded walkway, a strong and stately mature oak and a young alchemist student.
Also here: Phelim's Vengeance Faragin who is attended by a viridian wildling spider and Fanatic Drokug.
Obvious paths: north, west, northwest.

[The Crossing, Town Green Pond]
You stand on the bank of a tiny pond in the middle of the square.  Cool water laps against the soft, velvety silt that covers the shore, and in the distance you can hear the bustle of the town.  Sitting in the middle of the pond is a massive gelapod, looking content and not the least bit aggressive.
You also see some wooden benches, a simple wooden picnic table covered in gingham with several things on it, a domesticated gelapod and some junk.
Also here: Sothios who is shrouded in shifting shadows, Etleri who is sitting, Field Medic Darkewolff, Raktaddomm who is sitting and Bastleemix.
Obvious paths: out.
