Goldrock Saddle is a town in the Veilwater Basin, now held by the Drak and the Fell. Its people were lost early, soon after Stillwater Bay. The town's inn and houses hide notes that lead to two pairs of gauntlets. A mad wizard also searched for a tomb near the town in his hunt for eternal life. The Fisher sends players here in the quest Born Swimmer.
