The Pass is place that holds both the powers of good and evil. Once the site of the migthy troll wars which awakened the great Ice Wyrm from his deep sleep, it now is presided over by two towers. One, dark and and inhabited by the evil sorceror Balterian, and called Crag Tower is in the nw corner. The other, the Spire of Dawn is to the east and faces the rising sun. The Spire awaits the coming of the one belongs there and will bring healing and will help stem the spread of the darkness that radiates from Crag Tower. The Pass is dangerous and the beasts there are fierce. War Trolls, Ice Trolls, and winter wolves roam there. A strange witch dwells at the base of Thunder Falls and is rarely seen, tho, as if by agreement, the beasts avoid that place. Be very sure of your skills before you enter this place. It's a grim place to die alone in.
