Taachlazi Grass Sea
The great expanse of open grassland and Savannah west of the Taachlaz Mountains.
Sparsely inhabited by nomads.
Nadabi followers of the path have been attempting to chart routes through the Grass Sea since before the Mabahan Expansion, though with only marginal success. They report massive, crumbling monuments, faces carved in stone pillars, half buried cities, and shaded oases where strange birds and lumbering beast gather. Yet even the most experienced navigators never seem to find these landmarks more than once.
The Mabahan government officially believes the Grass Sea is a testing ground for the faithful. But in a move driven by practicality has built their great road through the Forrest's and hills east of the Taachlaz Mountains.
Geography
Broad, undulating savanah and grassland bounded in the north and west by tropical seasonal forest and in the west by the Taachlaz Mountains. The savanah, with occasional stands of trees premoninate the lower and western portions. As the hills approach and the mountains, water becomes more scare as they transition to the high deserts of the northern and central Taachlaz range.
Localized Phenomena
Scattered throughout the Grass Sea are ruins from the Empire of Itaz. Occasionally remnants of the cataclym can be found here as well.
