Diver's Grave
Deep beneath the waves of the mermaid path lies a terrifying graveyard of wrecked, merrow-infested ships scattered across the ocean floor. This sunken cemetery of broken vessels is strewn over miles and miles, and each salvage ship that tries to reclaim cargo from the Diver's Grave only adds another corpse to its hungry sands. The Grave seems to sense ships as they approach and sends out a storm to consume them. At the heart of the Grave is an underwater maze of carnivorous seaweed, and within this dread labyrinth lives Dashilla the Dreadful, a terrible sea fury who hungrily awaits her next shipment of wayward sailors.
At surface level little distinguishes the location beyond the rest of the waters of the area, however the location is known for its rough waters, and unusual frequency of fierce storms. The sea bed of the Diver's Grave slopes downward, gradually forming a valley around 700 feet below the surface of the ocean that is littered with numerous shipwrecks. At the center of the valley is a cavern set into the stone of a rocky shelf that is covered in dead coral.
Within the silt, barnacles and sediment along the seafloor lies the Tide's Breath. The ship is resting at an odd angle, the bow slightly angled upward. On one side is a large, gaping hole in the cargo hold caused by a large explosion that tore through the hull. The top of the deck and the edges are blackened from a fire that broke out before it sank.
