| + | ====== SILLN HIGHLAND ====== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Temperate Desert, Rocky | ||
| + | This stony plateau occupies most of Breland’s southernmost peninsula, separating the eastern crosspiece of | ||
| + | The Hilt from the sea. Much of the area is rocky and | ||
| + | barren, except where emerald oases of ferns and juniper | ||
| + | trees spring up seemingly at random. Thousands of | ||
| + | underground springs feed the small pools at the heart of | ||
| + | each of these oases. What could be a dangelrous countryside is instead somewhat parklike, with the largest oases | ||
| + | linked by the remnants of old Dhakaani roads. The | ||
| + | stark contrast between gray-white stone and vivid green | ||
| + | plant life has made the region popular with wealthy | ||
| + | travelers willing to make the crossing from Sharn. | ||
| + | Despite its rugged beauty, Silln is not without dangelrs. | ||
| + | The pools are sometimes used as meeting sites for secret | ||
| + | cabals in Sharn, and stumbling across such groups can be | ||
| + | deadly. Even with patrols from Tour du Briquet on the alert, | ||
| + | monsters still wander the region, often coming up from | ||
| + | the caverns that wind throughout the massive plateau. | ||
| + | Worst of all, a Dhakaani clan, hobGobelins who retreated | ||
| + | underground after the Guerre Daelkyrs, took refuge under | ||
| + | Silln. Most of their energies are turned toward breaking | ||
| + | the curse of Yarkuun Draal (see below), but they still make | ||
| + | time for the occasional kidnap and ransom of a wealthy | ||
| + | tourist or raid on Tour du Briquet. Were Yarkuun Draal to be | ||
| + | restored, they would make themselves known in force, | ||
| + | claiming all of Silln as their own nation. | ||
