The Lonely Barrens was a craggy and secluded area located to the south from Delimbiyr River and east from Daggerford and its Eastern Farmlands on Saeraethra's Stream.[1][2]
Description[]
The Lonely Barrens laid around six hours of trek through the Delimbiyr Vale from the city of Daggerford. The region was secluded and almost inhabitant, characterized by outcroppings of high and dangerous crags. Several smaller streams cascaded off the high edges into the wild rivers running along the crag floors. The Barrens had thick forests growing on its top levels with an occasional natural cavern of chasm.[1]
History[]
In 1372 DR, one of the cavers in the Lonely Barrens became a home for dangerous and smart foe, known as the Mighty Rat of Cunning Demeanor. Aspirant knights from the Order of Tye of Waterdeep, Squire Blancheflor, Squire Launfal, and Squire Camelon, were sent to slay the terrible beast but were unable to handle the creature's horrific rat swarms. They found themselves shivering and crying outside of the rat warrens until aided by the Hero of Daggerford. The adventurer bravely defeated the rat swarm and rid the Lonely Barrens of the cunning brain-devouring talking rat.[1]
