The Shimmering Canyon

The Shimmering Canyon is a canyon located good distance away from the city of Salire. The place was given the name thanks to the shimmering light that comes from the canyon when the sun rises in it's direction. Once thought to hold some gold or even some valuable crystals. So far no investigation of the place had yet to prove anything of worth inside these canyons.
Though most investigations don't go to far in because of the chance of falling ice and possible dangerous creatures that make the canyons their home. Those who have went to far in were lost with out a trace. This has made many discouraged to find out what lies deep with in those canyons.
