Chelna Gap
A wooded plain between the Félsha Mountains and the highlands of the Shâva Forest. The gap is crossed by the Salt Route and is the main land corridor between eastern and western Hârn. Control of its vital traffic was one of the issues leading to the Salt War between Káldôr and the Thârdic League. Today, the region is claimed by Káldôr as the Chélmarch, but only the odd patrol from the kingdom is likely to be encountered. Trobridge Inn lies at the western end of the gap. In a battle fought just east of the inn during the Salt War in 672, a Kaldoric army was defeated by a larger force of the Thârdic League. The gap is the home of the generally hostile Chélni, a loose federation of some 30 barbarian tribes. The only hope of safely traversing the gap is to convince a Chélni chief to give his protection in return for suitable gifts.
