Rutledge is a port harbouring roughly 250 souls on the Nocturnal Sea at the frontier between Darkon and Nova Vaasa. It is not clear to which state it belongs and that, plus its remoteness, has allowed it become a pirate haven, albeit a low key and well-beheaved one. Fishing, however, remains the lifeblood of the village.

Four islands, the Dismal Four, afford the port a measure of shelter from the worst of the storms of the Nocturnal Sea. The smallest of the islands is also the nearest and is the site of a lighthouse that was felled by a storm in 753 BC and remains to the present in its ruined state. The largest of the islands is, curiously, unexplored, although a local hermit by the name of Bill Copperplate is obsessed with put together an expedition to just that end.
