Tʜᴇ Fᴏʀɢᴏᴛᴛᴇɴ Rᴇᴀʟᴍs [Fᴀɴ Vᴇʀsɪᴏɴ]

The jagged Desertsmouth Mountains, a desolate barrier between the verdant Dalelands and the sun-scorched Anauroch, rise like skeletal fingers against the sky. Barren peaks, riddled with monstrous lairs, conceal rich veins of adamantine and iron, tempting the desperate and the greedy. Orcs, ogres, and goblinoids stalk the shadowed slopes, remnants of hordes that once overwhelmed the human settlement of Tarkhaldale, now a ruin in the western foothills near the lair of the dracolich Ashazstamn. Within these crags, the dwarven realm of Tethyamar, once a refuge and now a Zhentarim stronghold, echoes with the clang of forgotten industry. Scattered amongst the treacherous terrain are hidden tombs, like Shraevyn's final resting place in Giant's Craw Valley, and the old tomb of Shattershree, a silver dragon manipulating events from the shadows. Swordcrag, a reformed orc fortress, stands as a testament to the mountains' savage nature.

The mountains rise like skeletal fingers against the sky, their jagged peaks casting long shadows over the desolate landscape. The terrain is treacherous, with crags and hidden valleys concealing ancient secrets and lurking dangers.
