The Endless Ice Sea was an enormous glacier north of the Spine of the World believed to house hidden treasure troves and magic.[6]

Geography[]

The Endless Ice Sea was located to the east of Reghed Glacier and a frozen wasteland. To the south it was lined by the Spine of the World. The western edge of the glacier approximately lined up with Lurkwood and the Valley of Khedrun to the south.[1] To the north of it was the Ice Spires.[2]

Fairy ice was known to naturally occur in this area.[7]

History[]

The Endless Ice Sea rose alongside the Great Glacier from Ulutiu's magic necklace.[8]

During the War of Heart, Hartkiller was known to have sought allies among the various humans scattered throughout the Endless Ice Sea.[9]

Inhabitants[]

Around 1366 DR,[note 1] a number of ancient giant tribes dating back to the days of Ostoria were known to be maintaining strongholds scattered throughout the area.[4]

Notes[]

  1. The year is deduced from the "Presenting . . . Seven Millennia of Realms Fiction" article from Wizards of the Coast and the fact that Giantcraft describes its setting as taking place immediately before the events of the The Twilight Giants trilogy.
