An inland sea created by Ivak's cataclismic fury during the Valterrian, the Suvan Sea is a major trade route and the foremost hub for piracy in Mizahar. [lore]

Lake Levar

Lake Levar is a large but somewhat secluded lake which is not too far from the limits of Karjin. The lake sits not too far from the shore of the Suvan Sea. The lake is surrounded on all sides, except one where the lake stretches out into Suki Bay, by stone about one hundred feet high. Upon these stone walls grows all sorts of Talderian flora. Mosses, ivy, and even gigantic trees have dug their roots into these stones. Some say this stone was blessed by Tivaku which causes the plants to grow so lushly in it's crevices. Others claim it is Kihala who breathes life into the rock where normally plants could not grow. Both stories seem to bring about their God or Goddess' followers to see if the myths are true.

There are only two ways to reach Lake Levar without jumping from the tall stone walls. There is a opening at the south of the lake which is on a down slope to the rocky bed to the lake. There is no true shore to speak of on the lake. Only places where the rocks are higher and enable the visitor to stand higher.

ImageThe other way to enter is through Suki Bay, which juts out on the south east side of the lake. The walls of the lake slowly shorten as they reach the bay until they finally seem to disappear into the stone bed of the water. The shore stretches out from the water to touch the land near Karjin. The shore is made of smooth stones of all sizes and shapes. Some are even rumored to have been formed from runoff pebbles from the lake's stone walls.

The level of the water is constantly fluctuating due to the little room for runoff of water, except at the Suki Bay. It all depends on how much rain the lake receives. There are times when the lake appears to have a bit of a shore due to it's water evaporating and exposing the stones at it's bed. On the same note, there are times when the water begins to creep up the down slope to the lake and one must swim just to get within the stone walls if they are not at the bay entrance.

The creation of Lake Levar was one made solely of nature. The snow and rain eroded the center. Where the lake now sits had been a depression in the ground to begin with but with Taldera's harsh winters and fair share of rain, the elements carved out the land where the lake sits now.

Lake Levar is populated by many different kinds of fish from trout, to salmon, to pike. One can also find otter swimming in it's waters. On occasion bears, weasels, foxes, or other predators will venture into the lake in search of fish or a place to wash their fur.
