Turlay

Turlay is an Eldorian continent in the 4th Edition Campaign. Turlay is on the upper limits of mapped Eldor. It borders Raslan to the south, and stops not far before the beginning of Wilderun.

One river (whose name is unmarked on the map) runs from the mountain range called the Deadmounds down into choppy waters.

Turlay is uninhabited by civilised races to the best of common knowledge, and the meaning of the solitary 'R' is not quite clear. It is known that another 'R' is a source of mystery at Dretten.

History
Turlay is a land rich in history; however much of if has been lost through the ages due to ... dragonfire. All recorded information about Turlay is found in charred parchment scrolls and scorched tomes in a magical acadamy of undiclosed location. The remnants of the past tell of great wars between the Dragons and the Dwarves in the mountains. It is unknown whether any Dwarves remain in the mountains, but ships or riders daring enough to travel to Turlay sometimes report of great flying reptiles of many colours and monsterous power.

It is deduced, however, that at least one other civilised race resided in the realm upon an era ago, because Dwarves record history on slabs of stone, not parchment.

Nowadays reports state there lives wild Goliaths in the mountains.

Geography and Social Significance
Turlay has no social significance in Eldor due to it being mainly uninhabited.

Its climate, though in similar latitudes to Dretten, is not polar, apart from when it is alpine.

The hellish waters around Turlay make it nigh on impossible to reach by sea, however some have tried and succeeded.
