Salem

Salem is a continent that the party visits on their way to Silverspire. It is in Salem where the party desperately searches for a cure for Cara’s poison. While she lies in a coma, the other party members track down an antidote. Once Cara is awake and well, the party must cross the quicklands, a sea of quicksand, and then board a ship to the port city of Beryn, the next stop on the way to Silverspire.

Geography

The continent of Salem is mostly arid, dry, and home to many of the world’s deserts.
