So I was really taking my time looking at everything in decrepit village, and now I'm confused more than ever but what that place really is. As I'm walking around and looking, I realized that it really isn't a village at all. There are two structures, or buildings, that are kind of like shacks. They aren't really homes, And everything in the supposed village looks like it was constructed using bones from giant serpent monsters. There are even two full skeletons of these monsters on the beach. The only two buildings are made of wood, and only one of these looks like maybe a place where someone would sleep. The other looks more like a workshop. There is a collapsed mining tunnel on the upper level to the east of the village.
As I'm looking at it, I realized that this place looks more like it was once an orc place, or maybe goblins or hobgoblins. Some sort of primitive race. It also doesn't look like a village. To me it looks more like one person or family settled there, made a single structure to sleep in and a single structure to work in. There are no tents or anything. So it doesn't seem like this place was the home of anyone at any point in time except maybe a single small group of people. I could see maybe three or four people at most living there.
What's also weird to me is that although most of the place looks like it was made by a primitive race like orcs, the two buildings that exist look like they were made by humans or a similar race from the surface. It doesn't look like an elven structure or an orc structure or anything like that. So I'm just utterly confused by this place. Who first settled it? Is it just an outpost for the gnomes before they were recently captured by the duergar? I mean, it looks cool, but I'm just getting mixed signals from it. I feel like there's a good story there but no definite telling of said story. There's just not enough clues to piece it together.
