One of a pair of towns on a river ford where the Returned are known to, erm, Return on a fairly regular basis. Braced by Kendall’s Well on the other side of the river, with whom they have a not-so-friendly tense rivalry with. The Returned who show up in the river are given the choice to go to either the Forge side or the Well side. Kendall’s Forge leans more toward manufacture and industry, but always with beauty in mind.
Salinger’s home since he returned, where his wife Ori and his daughter Cheralie Proserpina Morel, as well as Ori’s extended family, live. He goes walkabout frequently, but always returns (thus far).
