From where the wide Uon
slows down over the lowland to the coast where it washes out into the
Sea of Donir there is nothing but inhospitable marshlands as far as
one can see. In all of southern Donir, from Ferman Forest in the west
to the eastern reaches of Ohren's Plains everyone has heard tales of
strange inhabitants living deep inside the mazes of waterways and
swamps. Most call them the Withering, for it is said that they are
the remains of some ancient evil created by Eri-Ogori himself before
he disappeared from Romesia.
When travelling these
lands one will hear storytellers speak of heroes of old and their
encounters with these creatures, but most of all the stories of Ohren
himself.
