Kraken Bay

Kraken Bay is a large bay on the southern coast of Khorvaire , bordering Darguun , the Mournland , and Valenar . [1]

Geography

The Kraken Bay is one of the largest bays on the southern coast of Khorvaire. [1]

Several rivers discharge into the Bay, including the Ghaal River of Darguun. [2] The Rushing River used to discharge into the Kraken Bay, but since the Day of Mourning the river has dried up. [3]

The eladrin city of Shaelas Tiraleth and the Cyran town of Seaside used to lie on the coast along the Bay but were destroyed in the Day of Mourning. [4] [5] [6] The Valenar town of Pylas Maradal is the largest settlement on the coast of the bay today. [1]

History

The nation that would become Metrol and then Cyre first arose from the coastal town of Seaside on the shores of the Kraken Bay. [5]

During the Last War , the Kraken Bay was the home of Cyre 's navies [7] and the steel krakens sold by House Cannith to Cyre to defend their southern coast. They patrolled an area of 5​ to ​10 miles (8​ to ​16 kilometers) from shore and hindered Cyre's enemies from making landings and naval attacks. [8]

However, since the nation was destroyed during the Day of Mourning, the bay has been home to strange monstrosities from the Mournland, [7] while the steel krakens spread further from the bay. [8]

Today the Kraken Bay is used by independent scavengers traveling to the Mournland, and by the Khraal Lords of Darguun to raid shipping. [9]
