Along the west-most part of Leide lays a rather rough road known to those dwelling in such parts as Hunter's Road. The name is far from an official one and yet there is not a native in the area who would be oblivious if you were to reference it in casual conversation. It has earned this name for being the most direct route between the Prairie Outpost up north, and the nearest Kenny Crow's diner, down south at the fork for Hammerhead, Galdin, and Duscae. Fortunately for the Hunters, Pallebram Haven lays right there midway along the road for those hurrying to and from their hunts.
Needless to say, all others benefit from Pallebram's presence as well. This Haven rounds out the trio which populate the Three Valleys, and so if you are to visit one of the others, certainly you will wind your way to Pallebram one way or the other. Some take advantage of it for they too are on business to the Prairie Outpost. Others simply find it to be the most convenient and nearby Haven in their ventures throughout the Three Valleys.
Then there are the few nature lovers who adore Pallebram not only for nearby resources, or its proximity to a parking lot, or that it offers a respite from the road, but rather that, out of all of the Havens within the area, it provides what some may argue is the best and most breathtaking view of the Peak. For it is Pallebram that does not have to contend with the glare of fort searchlights, nor the patient neon of Hammerhead, or a motel's bright parking lot. It is merely Pallebram out in the expanse of desert. I would not particularly call myself a nature's man, yet even I cannot deny that the view of the Peak before an evening sky is a breathtaking one.
In order to best enjoy such a beautiful view, however, it is wise to take advantage of what the Valley has to offer. While not so deep in as Merrioth Haven is, Pallebram nonetheless still enjoys the Valleys' material splendors should one not be afraid of chasing away Sabretooths. Leiden and sweet peppers both are bright spots in the dry hills, while sweet potatoes and birdbeast nests are but minor treks away.
If one is willing to cross the road, as well, and takes care not to venture into a certain tunnel... Funguar also congregate right there at the entrance, and should be enjoyed as a rare treat that is otherwise not so plentiful out there in Leide.
Enjoying the natural splendor of a sight like the Peak means enjoying a meal that is as refreshing as the air around you while also settling into your stomach like a rock. For that, I would recommend a veggie medley stew that incorporates the fresh potato and funguar of the area, along with some sheep's milk that will help bind it all together.
Before I give my final score, I will give one last word of warning. There exist many rumors of a particularly speedy and prickly creature which dashes through Leide's plains. I can confirm that at least one variant may be spotted in the vicinity of Pallebram.
It is always wise to carry antidotes or poison-negating jewelry on hand no matter where you are camping, but perhaps especially take care to do so around Pallebram.
