Anthropologic and Folkloric Historie of the Settled Lands

Anthropologic & Folkloric Histories of the Settled Lands was a seven-volume series of books, written by the famed historian Carcroft the Long. It detailed the history of societies, cultures, and folklores within the Settled Lands of Faerûn, these being the lands of Cormyr, Sembia, and the Dalelands.

The third volume of his series was known to touch on the Vast Swamp, wherein Carcroft partially detailed the life of a bandit chieftain known as Fastred and the legend of his ghost. In that same volume, he detailed that beholders, dragons, hydrae, and meazels could be found in the Vast Swamp. He also jokingly remarked that one might occasionally find a tax-gatherer.
