Tyre

Tyre is a port city. The cape that must be sailed by traders is very treacherous and prone to amazing storms. Ships prepare for passage here, trading goods and establishing shipments that will be hauled overland into the interior.​   ​The storms are based on the 4 elements and their severity is increased as the power of the Temple increases. Patches of burning water are not uncommon.​   ​The City of Tyre is an independent port city that sits west of the Bone Swamp. Tyre lies on the banks of Cutler’s Throat, the river that runs northward into the high mountains no name yet). Many small fiefdoms have developed along Cutler’s Throat and are often protected by Tyre as are the waterways of Cutler’s Throat, in general. Overland travel eastward is via the Low Road. The Low Road was established hundreds of years ago. It is the lower portion of a to-segment trail that leads from Tyre to the Kron Hills. While the road does its best to weave through the high points of the Bone Swamp, in many places it had to undergo serious construction which took 2 decades to finish and is in a constant state of maintenance. The Low Road completes its path at the shore of The Endless Lake. Here travelers can choose to take their path over water or circumnavigate the lake. Most choose to move over water to then connect with the Spinehold River which can be navigated all the way to the High Road The Spinehold River is a mighty flow that runs from the Mountains in the North directly into the Bone Swamp. The River itself can sometimes be hard to ascertain as it’s banks blend and mix into the swamp itself (in fact, the Spinehold is a major contributor to the Swamp’s existence) – only the most experienced of river pilots will navigate it successfully. Unfortunately for many, the best pilots are the pirates who sail the river constantly looking to defraud and hijack heavy laden mercants and freighters (one of the few reasons some may travel overland with their wares). The Spinehold split into two bodies, the Upper Spinehold and the Lower Spinehold. The Lower Spinehold dumps into the murky depths of The Endless Lake and the Upper Spinhold reaches northward eventually blending into the landscape with depths that can only be passed with shallow-depth boats. The Upper Road connects with the Upper Spinehold that winds its way through the northern swamp lands eventually rising out of the territory as it winds into the Kron Hills.​   Connected to: Anton Degenhert Bensarian Kevar Boone O'Flynn Elvenstar Fox Gylharen Landyn Teriak
