Krund Hills
The Krund Hills lie between the Grimcrags to the north and the Rejarn Vaults to the south, forming a rugged, rocky landscape in central Remon. These limestone hills are a mix of barren outcrops, scattered woodland, and occasional caves, providing a natural divide between the northern and southern regions of the island. The ruins of Ralshan Darn, an ancient fortress, can still be found in the northern reaches, a reminder of the region's turbulent past.
The hills are home to various creatures, including Narshax, massive, burrowing rodents known for their destructive tendencies. These dangerous animals often plague settlements at the edges of the hills, digging vast burrows that destabilize the land and devour crops. Marmots are also common here, their high-pitched whistles echoing through the hillsides as they forage for grasses and herbs.
The sparse vegetation includes hardy plants like Arraxosa and Chorka shrubs, which manage to survive in the rocky soil. Clusters of Fir and Pine trees dot the northern and eastern slopes, while Silverhorn trees cling to the steeper cliffs. This makes the Krund Hills a wild, untamed region that offers both shelter and danger to its inhabitants.
Hunters and traders occasionally pass through, though the hills are largely unsettled due to the presence of dangerous wildlife and the rough, inhospitable terrain. The region’s caves, some extending deep into the hills, are rumoured to be the lairs of mysterious and aggressive creatures, making them a place of both fear and intrigue for those who venture near.
