Serpent Sound

Serpent Sound is a very long, narrow inlet between Winderia and the rest of Cüro. The western bank of the sound is made up of cliffs of 200 or more feet, while the eastern bank comprises more common beaches. The sound nearly makes Winderia an island rather than a peninsula.
The people of Winderia attempted to make the sound an oceanic trade route, but the passage is quite rocky, and the currents played havoc with the ships. Additionally, the steep cliffs pushed the logical port location down to Irzak Pass, and trying to protect a port against Zoreth incursions became more difficult than it was worth. Instead, Biura dedicated itself to locking down the sound, including fortifications along the entire western shore toward Mur.
