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]
