You walk up onto the north bank at the nearest opportunity and into the woods, circling around to the dock under cover of brush. You're trying to be quiet but you occasionally break a twig or rustle some leaves.
From this angle you can see that the dock is made of stone pylons that have very few seams, and a walkway in the middle made of big wooden timbers. The dock doesn't have any equipment on it but there's plenty of dirt and leafy debris. There are also a couple wooden pillars sticking out of their own pylons, but they're broken off a few feet up.
At the land end of the dock is a little cobblestone-paved area that's almost completely obscured by packed dirt and leaves covering it, with moss growing on the shady spots.
On one side, forming an L shape, is a fieldstone building with big gaping-open windows and a slate roof with a fish-scale pattern. Remnants of half-inch-thick glass are stuck in the frames of the open windows. The roof extends out from the building on all sides, with a broad wooden porch under it all around.
Overall, the area is arranged like so:
Building Plaza
Dock
<----------River----Three
charming little fellows are sitting around in the plaza gabbling to each other and eating. There are some baskets with handles and a big pile of gravel in a four-wheel cart.
Oh yes. They're eating. Strands of sausages and big wedges of cheese and bread rolls and pickles. Passing around a jug with a tiny one-finger handle.
Doesn't seem like they see you.
You're hungry, thirsty, and cold.
