Hayward Fishery was formerly a small single island prior to the Cataclysm. It is now a tiny archipelago off the coast of southwestern Gilneas which houses a fishing business run by the Hayward brothers: Sebastian, Ron, and Walt Hayward (formerly counting Trent and Tim before their death). The brothers have been running the Fishery for years and didn't make it to Duskhaven very often, except to trade their fish.^[1]

History

Cataclysm

This section concerns content related to Cataclysm.

The fishery following the Cataclysm.

When the populace around Duskhaven was ordered to evacuate to higher ground due to the Forsaken invasion and the earthquakes, the Haywards decided to leave by boat rather than being part of the land evacuation. With the help of the Gilnean adventurer, they repaired one of their ships^[2] while fighting against Forsaken Castaways who survived the sinking of their ships at the Duskmist Shore.^[3] Oddly enough, despite the rest of the area having been sunken by the Cataclysm, the Fishery is all well, having not even been touched, ironically the Haywards could have stood a chance at remaining at their home rather than evacuating like the others.

Over a decade later, the Haywards returned to their fishery following the Reclamation of Gilneas. Ron explained that they lost all of their furniture in the flight from Duskhaven; though his status as a carpenter means they should be fine. Meanwhile, Walt was amazed at the condition of the boats that were left behind; stating that they were hardly damaged at all and could fix them. Finally, Sebastian announced that Tim and Trent did not survive their time away from the fishery, he was also surprised that the place hadn't collapsed.^[4]
