The Gorge of Death is one of the Five Forbidden Regions in the Western Continent, and the only one that is not considered a complete mystery. It is one thing to note, though, that the the shape of this area made moving large numbers of people almost impossible.
It serves as the dividing line between the North and Central regions of the continent and at the end of this line is the Forest of Darkness; this was why it was difficult for the North to come down to the Central region.[1]
It's known to have never-ending winds and is considered to be the most dangerous gorge on the continent.[2]
History[]
The Guardian Knight of the Paerun Kingdom had brought to reality something from the legends. A Wyvern Knight Brigade. They had found a way to dominate the sky. This brigade gave them a method to cross through both the Gorge of Death and the Forest of Darkness without any issues. Other than long-distance levitation magic that someone at Rosalyn or Raon’s level could use, this was the best you could find.[1]
