Gloommire (also spelled Gloomire)[1] is a swampy region on the southern side of Blackwood, in the province of Black Marsh.[2] It borders the Blackwood Bog to the north and the Niben Forest to the west. The city of Gideon, originally inhabited by the Kothringi, can be found here. Notable locations include Glenbridge, Rockgrove, Stonewastes, and Xi-Tsei.[3]

History[edit]

Although routes from Shadowfen and Leyawiin exist, the roads to Gloommire are often treacherous and are closed during monsoon season.[4] The area around Gideon was once considered Kothringi homelands before the race was wiped out by the Knahaten Flu of 2E 560.[5]

In 2E 582, a trade deal was brokered between Gideon and Leyawiin and the road to Gloommire was reopened.[6][5]

Fauna[edit]

Birds such as crows and hackwings can be found here.[2] Large frogs known as death hoppers are also found in the region.[7]

Notes[edit]

  • Gloommire is based on an early version of Murkmire (also called Dregmire) which was originally meant to centered around Gideon, before later being re-purposed to focus on Lilmoth.
