Location from The Witcher by Andrzej Sapkowski
A small Redanian market town forever marked by Geralt's bloody massacre in its square — where the Butcher of Blaviken earned a name that follows him across the Continent.
Blaviken is unremarkable in every way except one, and the locals wish it were unremarkable in that way too. A small market town of muddy streets and timber-framed houses where fishmongers hawk their catch alongside grain merchants and the occasional herbalist. The townsfolk are superstitious and insular — strangers get watched from behind shuttered windows, and the tavern falls quiet when unfamiliar boots cross its threshold. Geralt's confrontation with Renfri and her band turned the market square into a slaughterhouse, and the bloodstains have long since washed away but the memory hasn't. The locals don't celebrate the Butcher's visit. They resent it, the way small towns resent being remembered for someone else's violence. On market days the square fills with carts and haggling voices, and nobody stands where Renfri fell, though nobody admits they're avoiding it.
A modest town of timber buildings around a central market square. Fishing boats line a small harbor.
