Each morning, a line of smaller stalls springs to life beside it, fishermen, families, and independent traders selling their catches beneath canvas awnings and weathered tables. Yet even among them, the Bounty holds its place at the center of activity, its space larger, its stock more varied, and its presence more consistent than the rest. Established in 1469 DR when he was just a teenager, it has grown steadily into the anchor of the river market, the place most people head first when the day’s buying begins. The stall comes alive before sunrise, its tables quickly filled with fresh catches drawn from the [[Immerflow River]], and by early morning it becomes the busiest point along the waterfront. Voices overlap, coin changes hands, and the best cuts move quickly, while smaller stalls nearby either benefit from the overflow or compete for what remains. By midday, the rush begins to thin, leaving behind a slower trade that carries through the afternoon. While others come and go with the seasons, The River’s Bounty remains constant, its reliability and scale setting the tone for the entire riverfront. It is not the only place to buy fish in Silvercross, but it is the one most trusted to have what you need when you arrive. <div class="dioctionary-ribbon">Menu</div> - **Immerflow Trout** | _4 SP/lb_ | The most common catch along the river—mild, flaky, and fresh each morning.
