"Harsh, barren, and riddled with jagged mountains and sinister swamps, this broad expanse lacks safe havens for the weak and weary. Newcomers are advised to steer clear of these parts. Even Fort Tethana, the rumored human bastion in the northern reaches, lies amid fierce Tumeroks. It is far safer for unseasoned adventurers to stay in Osteth. On that side of the Island, near the edge of human settlements, they can hone their skills by hunting lesser creatures with others of like experience."[1]
