Neck, The

The geography of the continent of Earychyd is such that there is a narrower strip of land between the Qoryhama Forest and the Mountains of Kalnamai. This region is narrowed further by the Kallackaus Hills. The result is that there are significant wilderness regions blocking any open land between the eastern portions of the continent and the central sections. This then is the Neck.

The Neck is in many ways the Vilpuikimas River Valley. With the Kallackaus Hills blocking the southern portion of this space, the Neck is then the narrow passes between the river and the Kalnamais. While this site is the easiest way to move between the east and middle, it is still a region filled with many rivers and streams that must be forded or bridged in the safest places. As there is relatively little trade between the Elven Empire and the Human Guilds, there are no well-established or maintained trade routes through here.
