The Obsidian Plains are an area in the southwest Direlands. They are a perfectly round, raised plateau of obsidian, scarred with deep cracks and speckled with columns of obsidian, strange blue crystals, and giant mushrooms. Surrounding the Obisidian plains, one will find the Black Hills, a ring of tall, narrow, blackened plateaus, most of which are inaccessible.
Lore
The Obsidian plains were formed in Third Sending of Darkness, in the year RE 895[1][2] when the Yalaini Council of Five trapped Bael'Zharon in the crystal array.[1][2] The explosive power released destroyed the Jailne Lyceum, where the council had set their trap, and all of the coucil members, save Asheron, were killed.[1][2] The Explosion also ravaged the landscape, creating the Obsidian Plains.[1]
