The Woodland Cascades is a forested region located to the north of Kryta, west of the Shiverpeak Mountains and Far Shiverpeaks, and east of Janthir Bay. It is rumored that centaurs are attacking from this region.[1]
Long ago, the Bastion of the Penitent was built here by the Wizard's Court. Later, it was taken over by the mursaat, who used it as a correctional facility for their political prisoners.[2] By 1078 AE, the Woodland Cascades was home to the Quetzal tribe of tengu and an asura gate to the Tarnished Coast. It also contained mines operated by the Stone Summit dwarves and their dredge slaves, as well as the lair of the undead lich Zoldark the Unholy.
| In 1333 AE, the Woodland Cascades served as a battleground for the charr civil war between the United Legions and the rogue imperator Bangar Ruinbringer's Dominion forces. |
