Sempadan Forest

The Sempadan Forest was a vast jungle lying on the eastern side of the wide isthmus joining the continents of Faerûn and Kara-Tur with Zakhara. It was known as Herne's Wood to the people of the Utter East, on the western side of the isthmus.

Geography
The Sempadan Forest spread along the shore around the Segara Sea, east of the Yehimal Mountains and south of the Wu Pi Te Shao Mountains.

Geographical features
An unnamed river ran south-east through the forest. It had two tributaries descending from the mountains.

In the eastern part of the forest was Lake Odoh.

History
The nations of Kara-Tur had largely ignored the continental isthmus, so the Sempadan Forest remained completely unknown and unexplored by the 14th century DR.

Notable locations
The settlement of Seringkali lay in the eastern fringes of the Sempadan Forest, connected by a trail to Tang-ga.

The settlement of Sampar (once the southernmost port of Shou Lung ) sat at the very eastern tip of the Sempadan Forest.

In the far northwestern corner of what was called Herne's Wood stood Edenvale Castle, part of the Utter Eastern realm of Edenvale.
