Valley of Spears
The Valley of Spears is a rugged canyon nestled in western Desolace, serving as the stronghold of the Maraudine centaur clan. Enclosed by steep cliffs and guarded passes, the valley leads directly to Maraudon, the sacred ancestral burial ground of all centaurkind.
Stronghold of the Maraudine
Carved into the rugged heights of western Desolace, the Valley of Spears is a stronghold of the Maraudine clan. Accessible on foot only through narrow, easily defended mountain passes from the south and east, this enclosed valley provides the centaur with a natural bastion. Travelers who venture past the rocky chokepoints face dense encampments of hostile nomads guarding the approach to their most revered holy site.
The Threshold of Maraudon
Tucked away at the southwestern end of the valley lies the entrance to Maraudon, the sacred cavern housing the tomb of Zaetar, father of the centaur, where Princess Theradras dwells. Because of this proximity, the Maraudine defend the canyon with zealous fury against rival clans and outside interlopers alike. Anyone foolish enough to stumble into the valley unawares—such as careless gnome cartographers or scouts—frequently ends up captured or slain.
