Warden Swamp

Found in the middle of Coastlund, this swamp were named after the Pathwarden family after it suddenly developed around their family estate in 128AC. Roughly fifty miles across, the area is badly overgrown, and it is claimed from witnesses that a cypress tree can grow to full height there in only a few weeks. Should a patch of foliage be stepped on or damaged, it takes only moments to fully restore itself. The swamp was created a few generations ago by a Black-robed mage who called himself only The Scorpion. Attempting to prevent Sir Bayard Brightblade from lifting a curse on the Di Caela family, the mage caused local Satyrs and Centaurs to war with each other close to the Pathwarden Estate, and bribed young Galen Pathwarden for access to the house. The Scorpion – who also used the disguise of a knight named Sir Gabriel Androctus – was eventually defeated and the poison in the ground stopped, but the marsh remained afterwards.
