Lathtarl's Lantern

Latharl's Lantern was a small fishing village on the Sword Coast at the mouth of the Winding Water. It was close to Warlock's Crypt. .

History
Roughly 300 years ago, a pirate named Latharl crashed ashore here while fleeing the navy of Evermeet. With his ship destroyed, crew much reduced, and himself crippled, he improvised a plan to crash other unsuspecting vessels against the rocky shore. Word quickly spread among other pirates and slavers that this was a safe harbor.

The pirates eventually stopped crashing ships there after threats from merchants and the Lords of Waterdeep.

Legends
There were rumors of two dead kings who perished at the marsh at the mouth of the Winding Water: a rebel lord from Tethyr named Ring Tredarath and Beverdaur of Cortryn.
