Lore
An area in the southeast of Vylbrand, eastern La Noscea stretches from Bloodshore on the sea to Raincatcher Gully further inland. The region has a great diversity of terrain, with pristine white sand beaches to the east and dense jungles to the west.
Bloodshore
Bloodshore’s name stems from a macabre tale. Around fifty years ago, the enmity between the League of Lost Bastards and the followers of Rycharde Mistbeard came to a head off the coast of eastern La Noscea. When the smoke cleared, four galleys had sunk, and hundreds of corpses had been swept away with the tide, the water and sand stained red with their blood.
Gullperch Tower
One of three beacons built along the La Noscean coast in the Sixth Astral Era, Gullperch Tower is the easternmost—warning ships navigating the Strait of Merlthor of its deadly shallows, while also serving as a watchtower for pirate and Sahagin raids on Bloodshore.
Costa del Sol
Though this area was originally cleared for farmland, it was abandoned upon the discovery that no crops would grow in the salt-ridden soil. It then caught the eye of Master Gegeruju, a wealthy Ul'dahn entrepreneur, who purchased the land and set about developing it in the style of the south sea isles. Gegeruju has not only altered the area’s flora to match his tastes—going as far as introducing species native to more tropical climes such as the Cieldalaes—but also changed its name to Costa del Sol.
The Garlok's Lair
Intrigued by the “monster” known as the Garlok that was said to live in this dark cavern, Master Gegeruju sent a band of sellswords into the depths to find it. Not only are they rumored to have stumbled upon the legendary fear babe... but also stumbled “into” it, stirring the Garlok from its ages-long slumber.
Hidden Falls
Sheltered on three sides by towering cliffs, Hidden Falls can be found several score yalms upstream from where the Agelyss River empties into the Strait of Merlthor. Taken by its beauty, Ul'dahn plutocrat Gegeruju was quick to purchase the land and construct a stage upon which private performances for the magnate’s favored clients are held.
Raincatcher Gully
A great many plants blossom into crimson flowers within the warmth of this dense jungle, though scholars remain unsure of the causes behind such an imbalance in color amongst the region’s flora.
Brayflox’s Longstop
Brayflox Alltalks, a former member of the Company of Heroes, sought to establish a camp in this region. However, she was unaware of the wounded wyrm slumbering in a cave deep within. Thus, the party of goblins she sent into the jungle met with great tragedy.
The Severed String
Home to a black marketeer, the Severed String was also a shop dealing in smuggled and stolen goods until the owner abandoned it for reasons unknown. Though the place stood empty for a long while, at some point imperial deserters took up residence within its aptly named walls.
Red Mantis Falls
The deadly red mantises that lay their eggs near the base of this majestic waterfall also lend the place its ominous name.
Raincatcher Gully Docks
The ferry stops at these docks to take travelers across the river, and a small storehouse nearby serves its porters and steersmen. Of late, rumors abound of unscrupulous characters with a Far Eastern look to them entering the shack.
Agelyss Wise
The ruins of an archaic road, Agelyss Wise’s age is so great that some scholars hypothesize it was already old in the days of ancient Allag.
Wineport
Blessed with fertile soil and groundwater rich in minerals, Wineport is a Lominsan village famous for its vineyards and fine wines. The Bacchus grapes they grow are known to produce particularly exquisite vintages. Though the village is not a port in the traditional sense, its name derives from its bustling trade.
Castrum Occidens
Castrum Occidens was built by the XIVth Imperial Legion in the Seventh Umbral Era, and is garrison to the 2nd Cohort once under the command of Praefectus Rhitahtyn sas Arvina. The Garleans are said to have spent a great amount of time and effort examining the fragment of Dalamud lodged beneath the stronghold. [1]
