Regional Lore & History
Gazetteer — The Tandak Coast & The Lost Garrison
The Tandak Coast forms the rugged eastern littoral of Taldor where wave-carved granite sea cliffs plunge into the Inner Sea. Constructed in 1550 AR during Taldor's Fifth Army of Exploration, the subterranean prison complex was designed as an unbreachable stasis vault by High Warden Kaelas under decree of the Taldan Crown.
