The Creeping Mire

Once a stark and beautiful moor in the center of Keston Province known as the Hearthglen, this area is the lowest-lying region between the March of Mountains and the highlands of the Wilderland Hills and Lorremachs. When the Fiend Rains unleased their 10-year deluge upon the eastern slopes of the March of Mountains, the surrounding lands for thousands of square miles drained into the Hearthglen, and though much of the water did slowly seep into the ground, the area became a vast, ever-expanding swamp nonetheless and swallowed an ancient shrine holy to pilgrims of the Church of Mitra. Lizardfolk and brutish swamp dwellers are rumored to lurk in the dark waters of the swamp, but they are seldom seen, and their true numbers are unguessed beyond the accumulated disappearances of travelers on the Swamp Road.
