ABOUT PORTNALLAN

It's basically a dying village with the place overtaxed by absentee landlords and half of the cottages are empty.

Their tavern, The Gagging Gnat, is worse for wear but sailors come over for cheap alcohol and for a cheap . The village's only exports are smoked haddock and maybe prostitutes.

ABOUT DUINE HEAD COVE

Also known as the Duine. It's a sickle-shaped beach of black sand, the cove itself is sheltered by a collapsed sea cave roof.

This is where smugglers careen their vessels.

Yes, selkies, mermaids, and sirens exist here but slightly different.
