Wyrm's Crossing is a fortified double-bridge spanning the River Chionthar, serving as the sole land route into Baldur's Gate. Connecting the southern district of Rivington to the city's Lower City, the crossing is anchored by Wyrm's Rock, a formidable fortress that houses the Flaming Fist mercenary company. The bridge is not merely a thoroughfare but a bustling district unto itself, lined with various establishments and serving as a chokepoint for trade and travel. Its strategic importance has made it a focal point for both commerce and military oversight.
Wyrm's Crossing presents a unique urban landscape, with buildings constructed atop and alongside the massive stone arches of the bridge. These structures, ranging from shops to taverns, create a narrow, winding passage that teems with activity. Wooden decks and scaffolds extend over the river, offering precarious yet functional spaces for commerce and observation. The central Wyrm's Rock Fortress looms over the crossing, its granite walls and towers a constant reminder of the city's vigilance.
