Sea of Frozen Tears

The Sea of Frozen Tears, previously known as the Lake of Tears, was a lake on the border between Alpuk and Vaasa.

Geography
In the late 15 century DR, the Sea of Frozen Tears was a long lake, much of which was covered in platform ice. The Sea sat between the southern tip of the Surykyk Range and the northern face of the Lugsaas Chain mountains. The giant kingdom of Kultaakarr lay to the northwest of the Sea, and the ancient titan city of Baunilorotha sat on its northern coast. The ruins of Castle Perilous lay just to the south through the Valley of the White Worm.

The Utaak Stream flowed east out of the lake, connecting it to the Lugalpgotak Sea and feeding Taak Lake.

History
Prior to the mid 14 century DR, the Sea of Frozen Tears was completely frozen beneath the Great Glacier, but served as the origin of the Utaak Stream. As of the late 14 century, the Sea was known as the Lake of Tears, and was notable for its proximity to Castle Perilous. Over the course of the 15 century, as the Great Glacier continued to melt and retreat northward, giants began migrating to the area to reclaim the ancient titan kingdom of Kultaakarr. By the, they had excavated and refounded the city of Baunilorotha on the Sea's northern coast as their capital.
