A fantasy swamp city with a central stone building, thatched huts, and wooden docks, surrounded by glowing trees and fireflies.

Bullywug City: Murkfen Haven Location: Nestled deep within the Verdant Mire, a sprawling coastal swamp where the land and sea blend together. Brackish canals run between moss-covered mangrove towers, and shimmering fireflies form the city’s “streetlights.” Murkfen Haven sits partially afloat — a mix of wooden platforms, woven reed bridges, and half-submerged clay domes. Geography & Layout: Central Platform (The Croakspire): A massive cluster of interlinked lily-pad-like platforms supported by ancient roots. Here stands the Croakspire Council Hall — a coral-stone ziggurat covered in bioluminescent fungi. The Tidemarsh: Outlying areas where water levels rise and fall with the tides. Amphibious citizens live in reed huts that float up and down with the water. The Blooming Baths: Warm, magically infused pools said to heal minor wounds and purge swamp fevers. The Muckroads: Hidden underwater tunnels that connect to the open sea — secret trade routes and escape paths known only to Bullywug guides. 🧭 Role in the World Murkfen Haven is an optional shortcut across the swamp. Most travelers avoid the region because carts sink in the muck and because outsiders often misunderstand the frog-folk’s strict social etiquette. However, those who respect their customs can earn their friendship — and safe passage through otherwise impassable lands. ⚖️ Society & Culture Bullywug culture revolves around status, gratitude, and hospitality rituals: The Three Croaks of Courtesy: Visitors must See more
