The Charcoal Workers’ Yard brings together three sculpted kilns, open timber drying racks and a workshop with a sleeping wing. Carts, stored materials and a quenching trough give the yard a practical layout rather than a single central monument.
Inside, the kitchen and work spaces show how the workers lived between shifts. Search the supply containers and find The Expedition inscription, which records the surveyors’ descent beneath the roots. The industrial setting connects naturally with the larger Ashen Foundry, but visiting the two sites is not a required quest sequence.
Place in the story
The yard’s notices place everyday work beside preparations for the expedition. The Last Shift leaves the tools hot, counts “Six lights packed” and orders that kiln III not be fired. Another notice, headed Enna / Expedition, reduces the journey to two lines: six lanterns down and one vessel returned.
The loading instructions still reserve the last load “For the strangers.” That detail keeps the camp tied to the Roadkeepers’ original generosity even as its other records become urgent. It suggests workers trying to maintain the road’s needs through a disruption; it does not say whether they completed the load or reached the keep.
