Painted Canyon

Painted Canyon
Landscape: Canyon, Rocky Cardinal direction: East

Located in the east of Enarion, and stretching down the length of the Eliara River, the Painted Canyon gets its name from the appearance of its rocky walls. Different layers of rock in the canyon have strikingly different colors that create a swirling canvas when exposed to the air. In ancient times, the Painted Canyon was inhabited by a tribe of kobolds, ruled over by the fearsome dragon Surakaz the Red. Surakaz was slain by the elven hero Oremonthier, who later drove out the kobolds and founded the city of Lothelia atop the dragon’s lair.
