Godslost Swamp

The Godslost Swamp is situated near the southeastern edge of Queensdale in Kryta, providing one of two reliable passages further south into Kessex Hills. The swamp itself is wrapped in mystery, however, having only formed more recently in terms of Tyrian history.

The earth here is broken and fetid, home to various swamp creatures, lost spirits and the monstrosities from the Underworld that torment them. At its heart, something sinister bides its time, waiting to be released as a fallen statue of Melandru looks on from the remains of the Temple of the Ages - the only sign that this land may have once been a place of power and hope.

Our purpose is to discover how this swamp came to be and why it serves as a hunting ground for the dark and deadly forces of the Underworld.

Suggested Points of Investigation

 * Possible Origin - How was this swamp created?
 * Significance - How does this area effect the areas around it?
 * Points of Interest - Particular sites, anomalies, and phenomena worth noting.
 * The Big Picture - Possible connections to other places on Tyria

Greatheart Weald

 * Gw_champoakheart.jpg the western edge of the Godslost Swamp is the Greatheart Weald - an oddity unto itself being found so far from the lush and verdant Maguuman lands.


 * Sunken into the Queensdale landscape, Oakhearts cultivate the land and defend it from unworthy aggressors.  There seems to be little they can do, however, to prevent the corruption from seeping through the soil or the effect it has on them.  Those that succumb to the corruption turn violent, the only solution being to destroy them quickly before they can spread the corruption further.


 * It should be noted that the corruption here only becomes evident at certain times, each time followed by corruption and then fall of another Oakheart.  This is, at times, followed by an eruption of portals throughout the Weald, almost always heralding the Shadow Behemoth's imminent arrival in the swamp nearby.

Eldvin Monastery
Largely comprised of devotees to the goddess Kormir, the monks and scholars of the monastery are proud of the beer they brew and seem to talk of little else.

As in the Greatheart Weald, the corruption here can only be seen and felt at certain times.

Righteous Hoofmoot, Taminn Foothills

 * Taminn_foothills.jpg Taminn Foothills border the southeastern edge of the swamp, the Righteous Hoofmoot nestled firmly in the southeastern corner of Queensdale.


 * This site serves, or once served, as a ritual ground where the Tamini have made countless human sacrifices.


 * It is rumored that, for whatever reason, before the Shadow Behemoth appears, portals from the Underworld will appear in the area.
