Zamer Vodai

The Zamer Vodai Ocean is widely known across Vicheve as a cursed place, feared by sailors, for to sail into those waters is to never to return. Of the numerous expeditions to explore this dark place, none have ever been seen again, save as wreckage washing ashore on the Northern coast of Aeetos or the Western coast of Dedras. Its reputation is such that many shipmen prefer to navigate through the mysterious and ever-changing Feywaters far to the South to reach the Western coast of Aeetos, even those with routes originating from the far Northern continents such as Dedras.

Geography

What has been spotted of the Zamer Vodai is that which has been sighted from safer waters or shores close by but even then what can be seen, is seen though the thick fog that seems to blanket the area near-permanently as well as the ever swirling storms that block out the sun above the area. The only noticeable feature of the Zamer Vodai Ocean is that of the peaks of rock jutting from the ocean like the teeth of an enormous beast looking to tear into the sky above. Lightning-struck and battered by the waves, these rock structures seem to be all that can survive the cursed waters within the Zamer Vodai.

Localized Phenomena

The Zamer Vodai Ocean has two very specific localized phenomena: the eternally swirling fog that covers its waters and the localized thunderstorms overhead. The fog is so thick that it is almost impossible to see through should you find yourself unlucky enough to enter into the Ocean of Curses. The fog is present at all times of the day, year-round and does not lift to allow sailors to see deeper into the Zamer Vodai from safer waters, though that may be for the best. The thunderstorms are persistent at all times, the lightning striking at random against the rock peaks and the water as the swirling dark stormclouds block out all sun, leaving the area in a dim, almost dusk-like light throughout the day and leaving the nights pitch black with no moon or stars to guide by and only the occasional flash lightning to light the surroundings.
