Farsea Marshes

Farsea Marshes

Farsea Marshes is a canonical Water Body / Wetland located in the The Stormhorns & Farsea Marches, prominently surveyed on the regional map spanning From Sunset to Sembia.


Overview & Canon History

This wetland is inhabited by the Marsh Drovers, a welcoming people whose ancestors hailed from ancient kingdom of Anauria. They dwell in small villages and live off the land, herding groups of domesticated catoblepas. The Tun River originates in the marsh, flows south towards the Dragonmere. The marsh floods during heavy rains, which occur often during the spring months, while in summer the land grows dry and even hardens over, and freezing temperatures in the winter cause the water to freeze over and become largely unnavigable. The region was once home to an ancient civilization lost to time. The remnants of their astonishingly resilient structures are buried beneath the wetlands.
