Way back when I was running Shackled City, I decided that the highly fastidous elves in my party needed a challenge, so I had them take a side trip to the (as then) unmapped Sasserine. I added a side quest which took them into a adventure titled The Stink. I don't remember the issue number, but it was a great adventure in a walled up part of town where all the trash was dumped. Fast forward to now, and the same players will be playing in my Savage Tide game, and will miss The Stink. For the life of me, I cannot choose a good place to put it in the current map, and was wondering if Mr. Jacobs, or others had any suggestion. Any thoughts?

Shadowshore seems to me the best fit.

Sasserine certainly has a peculiar odor to it... especially since the city's "sewer" doubles as major thouroughfares. I'm talking about the canals, of course.
If you want to incorperate the Stink into Sasserine, I'd suggest one of two things:
1: Place the district just off the map to the east; make it an immense landfill created from a converted suburb that the Dredger's Guild uses to dispose of the filth they collect.
2: Shadowshore plays a part in "There Is No Honor," so it shouldn't be changed. Instead, you can convert the small walled-off area of Azure District where the whaling industry is into the Stink. If you do this, I'd suggest moving the whaling industry either to Shadowshore or to the Merchant District.
Thanks for the quick response! I will take a look at those two options.
