Cormyr/Coast

The Coast of Cormyr was an informal region of the realm, consisting of the rural lands along the coast of the Dragonmere in the south. Though home to the earliest human settlements in Cormyr, much of the coast remained a lightly-inhabited countryside of hidden villages and old, forgotten ruins.

Description
The coast was a stretch of pastoral lands east of the heartlands and south of the east reaches, with many villages and hamlets but few towns. It largely consisted of rolling plains interspersed with small valleys and woodlands, the largest of which was the Hermit's Wood, and many rivers, streams, and marshlands. The lightly-populated coastline had many coves and beaches suitable for landings, making it popular with smugglers and pirates despite the best efforts of the Blue Dragons and Purple Dragons.

Geography
The coast generally referred to the rural lands east of Marsember and the Starwater River, along the Way of the Manticore up to the border of Sembia at the Vast Swamp and Darkflow River. It contained part of the Eastern Plains, the large region of deforested plains along Cormyr's eastern frontier.

Bodies of Water

 * The Darkflow River emerged from the Vast Swamp and flowed into the Dragonmere, forming the border between Sembia and Cormyr.
 * The Starwater River primarily flowed through the Heartlands, but formed part of the western border of the Coast as it turned towards the sea.
 * The River Mistwater was fed by the Evenbrook and Kirinar Stream before flowing into the Dragonmere.
 * The Wyvernflow passed from the Wyvernwater in the north, bisecting the coastal region and allowing trade and travel to and from the interior of Cormyr.
