Myrkviðr

The region that contains the Frigid Riverlands and the Stórrwoad. Home to half a dozen dverge forts, all of them dilapidated, Hardhaven and Arísert are some of the only settlements within this vast region. All of the adventures undertaken by the Champions of Hardhaven thus far have taken place within the mountainous arms that border this section of Miðgarr.

Geography

Myrkviðr is the region contained within the arms of the mountains that stretch out from the trunk of the Mímameiðr on either side of the Amarak, which flows from the base to the Great Northern Sea. Within it lies the Stórrwoad, the Frigid Riverlands, and leagues of furrows - plains of churned earth stirred up by the feet of ðyrs. The Amarak is fed in part by the Ðyrs Flow, which flows ever forth from a suspended ðyrs corpse. It is thought to have been killed and created long ago, but no one alive is aware of exactly when or how the floating island of a corpse was fashioned. Many of the rivers that flow through the Frigid Riverlands do not seem to follow conventional understanding of how rivers form, flowing uphill and backward, snaking intentionally and strangely.

Natural Resources

With the Stórrwoad within its borders, Myrkviðr has abundant wood of extremely sturdy constitution. Stórrwood are renowned far and wide for the durability, but unfortunately are so dense that they make poor material for ships. Only the young stórrwood trees that haven't joined the grove are good for fashioning into ships, and those are sparse and give little material per tree.
