Wyrmfang Bay

Located in northwestern Imera, Wyrmfang Bay is is a large body of water that takes up much of the western half of the Ordan-Ulfgard border, and connects the Nordunr River to the sea. Drawing its name from the shape of its coastline (which resembles the fanged jaws of a massive Dragon), the rocky shores and rough waters of the bay make sailing through it dangerous for all but the most seasoned of sailors. Despite the dangers faced by those who sail its waters, Wyrmfang bay remains a vital part of the sea trade between Ordan and Ulfgard, as well as trade between Ordan and the human settlements along the Nordunr River.
