[A book advising merchants on trade routes by one Roger Highberry.]

Now, you'd be forgiven for thinking "I've made it on the Coast Way - it's plain sailing to Baldur's Gate from here." That's where you'd be wrong, my friend. While it only spans from Bereghost to the great Gate itself, the Coast Way is more tricksy than you'd expect - and it's a prime spot for ne'er-do-wells and ruffian types to prey on understanding mercantile folk on account of the Cloak Wood's proximity.

[The rest of the writing continues in a similarly ambling, but ultimately helpful manner.]
