Alagh's Pass was a naturally-occurring mountain pass that wound its way through an area of the Sword in the Anauroch desert.[1]

Description[]

It was regularly intersected by chasms and canyons, that were split by additional crevices.[1]

Geography[]

The pass was located between the a range of mountains in the Saiyaddar and the Hills of Scent.[1]

Geographical Features[]

Alagh's pass featured a single lake that had long since been nearly entirely dried up. All that remained as of the mid−14th century DR was a small muddy pool.[1]

Flora & Fauna[]

A copse of acacia trees surrounded the pool in Alagh's Pass.[1]

History[]

Alagh's Pass was named for the heroic Bedine tribesman Alagh, a warrior that famously held the pass against a rival tribe to allow his fellows to flee to safety.[1]

When the Zhentarim fought their campaign against the Bedine during the 1360s DR, they wound up poisoning the pond at the pass.[1]
