Please generate a brief description of a foreboding scene outside town with boats, a river, and a tower.

The town wall curves down to the river and extends out into it with the heavily-fortified Eastern Tower rising above to keep watch and to control the river traffic. A small path passes beneath the tower's shadow and through a narrow gate, wandering along the barren riverbank and out of town. A few boats are pulled up along the shore or bob gently in the current, tied to the many poles used to control river traffic.
