Wurmsbight
A curving inlet of water from the eastern sea, along the northern coast of the Korth'an region. The coast here is remote and wild, nestled against the northern lobe of the Korth'an Forest and immediately south of the broken spit of land marking the border to the Boiling Deep and The Glow. The waters themselves are largely barren of life due to the overflow of energies from the Boiling Sea, so fishing vessels from the south rarely venture here. This life returns closer to Conclave thanks to the waters of the river flowing into the bight.
With the waters of the Wurmsbight being fairly remote by southern standards, it is the perfect place to be home to the Gleaming Fleet. The sort-of-piratical, sort-of-explorer group of sailing vessels maintains a handful of docks and warehouses here. They harvest wood from that part of the forest for those ships, sailing out from the shore to other lands.
Today's vocabulary lesson: In geography, a bight is a concave bend or curvature in a coastline, river or other geographical feature, or it may refer to a very open bay formed by such a feature. Such bays are typically broad, open, shallow and only slightly recessed from: wikipedia
