This bridge unites the two shores of river Beranid as well as the hearts of Willowroot and Targonor. Our homes and hearths welcome all of you. Your soldiers protect us and our farms feed your children. On this day, I can announce that the Halflings of Willowroot pledge to stand with their human cousins whatever may come.1
