Gorge of Deloth

A deep gorge delimiting half of the current border between the Fortern Kingdom and Demon Empire. It extends from the Fana forest to a small plain right before the Cleaving Hills , effectively blocking the southern passage from the Verdant Steppes to the Eastern Realms. A large swamp rests at the bottom of the canyon, further preventing passage with its monstrous inhabitants.
The shape of this gorge as an incredibly large canyon as intrigued the few geologists of Orbido. Some theorize it is the result of a massive magical battle between monsters adept in Earth Magic, Others suspect a massive Earthquake shattered the fragile crust of the region a long time ago. Whatever the case, it is quite a marvel to observe from above.
