The Mire of Turmeny
The Mire of Turmeny is a swamp located south of Hillfar in Paglary Province. It is known as a place of death and decay among locals, and stories abound of witches and undead lurking in the deeper parts of the swamp.
Geography
The Mire of Turmeny rests in a low-lying basin about two miles to the south of Misty Lake and a little more than three miles south of Hillfar.
Ecosystem
Like a typical swamp, plenty of reptiles and amphibians can be found here, most of which hibernate during the colder months of the year. In addition, a myriad of stranger creatures such Bullywugs, black dragons, and corpse flowers. Indeed, the environment is so hostile to most medium or larger creatures, that zombies and other undead things are a regular hazard in the swamp.
History
It is said that long ago a lich made his home near the now-abandoned village of Turmeny, from which the swamp gets its name. The lich's machinations and spell casting corrupted the land around it, turning it into a swamp and raising the dead.
