 — Signposts on Ancient Spire Outpost

**Ancient Spire Outpost** is one of seven Outposts and is located within the region of The Ancient Isles at coordinate **Q-17**.

The Outpost consists of two islands separated by a narrow channel, with a series of bridges and caves leading to the top of each island. The tavern is at the top of the main island, with a series of ladders leading up from the main area of buildings.

The primary dock is on the east side of the main, southern island, while a second, broken dock can be found on the east side of the northern section.

## Mechanics

* Outposts are island towns where crews and their ships spawn when beginning a game, or sometimes after their ship is sunk.
* Outposts contain shops where items can be purchased. Each Outpost contains a tavern and one of each shop.
* Representatives of Trading Companies can be found at Outposts, from whom crews can pick up Voyages and sell treasure.
* Players can represent these companies as Emissaries by using Emissary Tables here.

## Notes

* Since it is the closest spawnable Outpost, it is preferred to spawn here if a crew needs to go to The Devil's Roar.

## Trivia

* Tasha rumours that a pirate named "Filthy Rich Semmens" ordered his crew to bury their treasure somewhere on the island. No treasure has been found but some say that she is the treasure.
