Hawke's Refuge

Hawke's Refuge is a location in the Mire region of Appalachia.

Background
Hawke's Refuge was a cave where Brianna Hawke and her family sheltered after Harpers Ferry was destroyed by Scorched in 2096. Its inhabitants waged a rather grisly battle against fellow Free Staters, the Sundays, over resources. It was fairly comfortable and well supplied for such a remote shelter. However, the Hawkes found out soon that it lacked in food and eventually starved to death after a battle with the Sundays set the field aflame and killed nearly everyone in their group.

When the Blood Eagles entered Appalachia in 2103, they used the cave to store their specially modified supply of Buffout. They later converted the exterior of the cave into a complex base, sealing off the cave itself and renaming the location as the "Dagger's Den."

Layout
A rusted off-road vehicle and pick-up truck surround the narrow mouth of the Hawke's Refuge cave. Glowing fungus and brain fungus can be found throughout the location, the former illuminating what is otherwise a very dark area.

A set of can chimes hang at the entrance to the camp inside the cave. Down a slope to the left of the short tunnel from the mouth of the cave is a cooking station surrounded by some sleeping bags. A passage to the north of the cooking station leads to the lower entrance to the main cavern.

Following the walkway directly forward from the mouth of the cave leads to the upper entrance to the main cavern. This entrance is a raised wooden platform where two settler corpses sit on a couch. Dirty water pools in a section at the bottom of the cavern. Beside this pool is a couch with yet another settler corpse, sitting in front of a group of instruments (a banjo, snare drum, mouth harp and steel guitar) which can be played by the player character to become Well Tuned. A brewing station is located in the northern section of the main cavern.

A set of stairs leads to a walkway with a set of power armor and which leads to a smaller cavern. In this cavern is yet another settler corpse. There are also several mattresses and sleeping bags here, as well as a steamer trunk and ammo box at the back of the cavern.
