Wind Caves

The Wind Caves are a series of underground tunnels that are responsible for the direction and speed of the wind.

As the large entrances constantly vent out powerful winds capable of creating storms, to enter the caves, one must be heavy enough to withstand the winds or use magic to direct the wind in another direction.

Characteristics

The deepest part of the Wind Caves connects directly to the massive subterranean areas where Deep Ekati can be found. It is here where one can mine from it, although doing so would draw the attention of the Arbiters.

Most of the Wind Caves are too small for a normal-sized being to enter. The larger entrances are capable of channeling massive windstorms. Entrances are found all over Eidyn, though the larger entrances are much more difficult to find - they are in secluded mountain ranges and even at the bottom of bodies of water. Even if one were to approach the entrance, they would be blown back out without special means to resist the wind.

Known entrances

  • Leir-Emsius Route - One particularly long tunnel connects the underground regions of Leir with Kohatu-Nui, an underground cavern below Emsius. Leir established relations and trade routes with the native Karaihe which gave them a technological edge over other nations of Eidyn.
