Bay of Laknas

The Bay of Laknas is a sheltered inlet on the northeastern coast of Remon, opening into the waters of Berin Sound to the east. Flanked by steep, forested hills to the west and wide, rocky beaches to the north, this deep bay has long served as a vital harbor for the town of Laknas, which sits at the mouth of the Ogir River. The Arkon River also flows into the bay further south.
The bay's waters are deep and calm, making it an ideal anchorage for ships seeking refuge from the often-stormy conditions of Berin Sound. This natural protection, combined with its strategic position along key trade routes, has made Laknas one of the most important ports in northern Remon. The bay’s deepwater harbour lies a league downstream from the town itself, where merchant ships and fishing vessels gather before venturing out into the broader sound and beyond.
Irestone, a prominent headland guarding the bay’s northern entrance, adds both beauty and a sense of security to the area. The sheer cliffs of Irestone are a navigational marker for sailors entering the bay, while the deep waters below offer excellent fishing grounds. The surrounding hills are rich with timber and other natural resources, providing valuable materials for the ships that regularly dock in Laknas.
Though generally calm, the bay is not without its dangers. Powerful winter storms occasionally roll in from Berin Sound, battering the coast with strong winds and heavy rains. These storms have been known to cause shipwrecks along the more exposed sections of the shore. Additionally, the bay’s waters are home to the fearsome Lorghee, which lurks in the depths, occasionally posing a threat to fishermen and sailors.
