The Marshes of Madness are avoided by all but the desperate. It is a realm of the Undead and a remnant of a past civilisation, forever cursed when the Crown of Sorcery was discovered on the banks of the Blind River. It is now a virulent swamp that is shunned by all. Within the marshes lies Morgheim and the insidious Tree of Beards, a testament to the folly of Dwarfs when they once tried to tame the swamp.[1a][1b] During the days of great Nehekhara, this region was known as the Sinking Marshes of Khernarch.[2a]
