Sea of Swords

The Sea of Swords separates the western coast of Faerun from the Nelanther Isles, the Moonshaes, Evermeet, Lantan and the further off areas of Abeir-Toril such as Maztica. The famed explorer Balduran was the first noted Faerunian to explore the sea extensively, returning with wealth enough to build a huge city, a fine ship and with enough left over to retire comfortably.
