Marsh of the Unrested
As one journeys weastward, escaping the relentless grip of oppressive aridity of the Ashen Deserts, and gets closer to the sea, the atmosphere becomes more humid. Yet, it does not make the land flourish with life like one would expect. In place of meadows and forests, emerging the Marsh of the Unrested, its very essence betraying an unnatural and unsettling aura. The air there hangs heavy with the miasma of toxic gases, and its murky waters keep innumerable halfrotten bodies of the ones who got lost there under its surface. This enigmatic marshland existed long before the Disciples of Chaos arrived in Herja, standing as a natural barrier between the desert of Kartagis and the eastern kingdoms of Herja but now, they border with the territory of the Disciples. But one cannot stop to ask, why are there toxic swamps there? Can something be found below them? As less and less people actually try to cross them, it invites curiosity rather than fear.
