River's Rest Museum

The River’s Rest Museum is a museum in the town of River's Rest. It is home to a number of artifacts of historical and cultural interest to the town. The museum is located south and west of the entrance to the Pavilion of the Bells. With a blue-tiled roof and walls covered in stucco tinted a soft orange hue, the tower that houses the museum is very similar in appearance to how many of the buildings in town may have looked before they came to ruin.

Artifact	Description	Information	Loresong
a sand timer	This is a simple sand timer. It's small enough to fit into a belt pouch and sturdy enough to be carried around without fear of breaking. Yet the glass is cracked and there is no sand left inside.	Attached to the timer is a small tag stating, "During the last years of 4200 M.E. and the first years of 4300 a style of improvisational poetry competition known as 'mosha-ereh' (being in company of poetry) became popular among the educated classes along the southern coastal communities of Elanthia. A poet was given a topic, the timer turned and the poet was expected to extemporize on that topic before the sand ran out." "This sand timer belonged to the poet Hakim Kharadh, who gained a wide reputation before his mysterious murder in 4292 M.E. Depending on the grain of sand used, Hakim's timer is thought to have been a two minute model."
some braided green cord	This is just an old section of braided green cord. The color has faded over time and it's easy to see the old cord has been through rough wear.	Attached to the braided green cord is a tag that reads, "This cord is thought to have belonged to Millah Pradapt, the leader of the famed Falcon company, who fought under the Last Commander of the Citadel (4002 to 4011 M.E.). The cord was used as a symbol of rank."
a falcon-headed cloak pin	This cloak pin is a disk of carved onyx. Inset in silver is a stylized image of a falcon's head. On the obverse side is the inscription 'Falcon Company...First to Fight.' A deep nick mars the beauty of the pin.	Attached to the cloak pin is a tag, which reads "This artifact was discovered in the ruins of the Citadel Infirmary. It is thought to to have belonged to a member of the legendary Falcon company, which fought so ably and valiantly from the time of the fall of the Kannalan Empire to the ultimate collapse of the River's Rest Citadel. The cloak pin was donated by members of the Beacon Hall Archives."
