Between the Inner Sea and the Sea of Despair lurks this murky tract of swampland. Although not tainted itself, the influence of the Sea of Despair to the east has cast a pallor over the swamps, making them dark and potentially dangerous. Alligators, pythons and turtles reside in the shallow waters, whilst rumours talk of a mugwump village of long ago, whose villagers abandoned their homes under mysterious circumstances.
