Mosstein Bay

Off the southern reaches of the Donlirr Sea, the Mosstien bay allows ship traffic to flow in and out of The Glass Desert and the Steadfoot Pass. The waterway is vital to the survival of the Eastward Desert's inhabitants, serving as its lifeline of supplies such as food and medicine that are nigh impossible to produce locally. Many a merchant have made their livelihoods off of importing and exporting from the areas connected to the bay. Notably, House Vanderberg has recently begun to ship powder and weaponry throughout the area, arming the soldiers at Hammerhold as well as providing the settlements within The Glass Desert with a better means to defend themselves.

Geography

The near-complete circle of land surrounding the bay nullifies most strong waves within it, providing smooth sailing for ships and little fear of storms for coastal locations such as Saraze and Hammerhold. It is a bay of warm waters and humid air, baked constantly under the shining desert sun and only yielding when the moon arises-- bringing with it a frigid cold that makes the waters of the Mosstien nigh lethal. Most of the waves within the bay are not caused by gravity alone, rather the strong winds that blow across the unobstructed body of water often create small movements within it.

Fauna & Flora

Fish rarely visit the waters of the bay, as it's extreme temperatures in both day and night provide little habitation for plant life in the shallow waters.
