Harpy's Bridge

One of Hathay's Nine Wonders, the Harpy's Bridge is an ancient bridge that joins the two halves of Karduun across the mouth of the Nubin river. It is a great stone construction supported by massive pillars and broad enough that two elefants can ridge side by side. Buildings line both sides of the bridge, spanning its lenght, almost creating a small society on the bridge alone.
It is said that one can buy anything here. Leatherworkers, glassblowers, fishwives, thieves, prostitutes, churches, and taverns are pressed so tightly together sunlight barely makes it to the cobblestones. Once, the bridge was mostly full of tanneries and butchers, who erected their own buildings here to sell to wealthy and poor alike, but the stench reeking from the bridge became so awful that the conclave ordered all the buildings torn down. From that day on, butchers, meat peddlers, and tanneries were forbidden on the bridge.
