  • Where the Baranduin River left the sagging edge of the Eriadoran upland for the last time, it spread its waters across a broad shelf of crumbling limestone. Whenever the rains upriver hadn't been too severe, anyone with grip-soled shoes and some nerve could wade the mighty stream. This was Sarn Ford; the name was a mix of Sindarin and Westron; "Iach Sarn" translated as "Stone Ford," as did " Arthrad Sarn," and all four combinations had been used to designate this river crossing. The Redway, the old Royal Road, crossed the Baranduin at the ford on its way from Tharbad to the Blue Mountains and Lindon. The river here was wide and brown, its banks lined with willow, poplar, and birch. A few hundred feet north of the ford, a squat granite fortress sat on a low hill overlooking the red-paved road. Black-clad Arthadan soldiers walked the ramparts, and a Prince's pennant flew overhead. Around the base of the hill clustered the cottages of a small village, and in the distance small farmsteads and groves of hardwoods showed among knobs of grass-covered limestone. On the south bank of the river, just downstream from the main road, the ruins of a larger village—its buildings and crude earth-and-stone walls half-abandoned and crumbling—rest on an obviously artificial mound. Steps led down an embankment of ancient rubble to riverside docks lined with unpainted ferry boats and fishing smacks.
