The Wyrm's Tail is a pass through the Yatil Mountains traveling from Krestible in Perrenland, to Molvar in Ket.

Description

History

The pass was used during the mid-fourth century CY by Kettite forces to invade Perrenland (post-345 CY). The invasion came dangerously close to taking Krestible but was ultimately repulsed. This contributed to the development of the Covenant of Concatenation (c.400 CY)[1]—the basis of government in Perrenland—in response to attacks through the Wyrm's Tail.

Geography

The Perrenland fortress Don Craggen Keep has a commanding view of the pass.

Resources

The pass is a vital trading route between the two nations. Perrenland trades dairy and seafood to Ket via the trail which winds though the pass, the Krestingstrek.[1]
