Altair Pass (east-west passage of the northlands)
Altair Pass was a crossroads of the north at one point. It provided east-weast access in the Northern Heartlands AND a winding pass through the mountains into the Northern Hinterlands that was open through most of the year. Altair Castle once stood proud at the south side of Altair Pass – the best and least expensive way through the north Altain Mountains to South Cut and onto the Aaldian Plateau when it was open. The area fell into disrepair when the Grand Barony of Altair fell in CY 6909.
The history of this place is chronicled in The History of the Grand Barony of Altair and Altair Pass.
The Altain Corridor: Kroith Passage was once the gateway between North Pines and the Grand Duchy of Rhyl and the Altair Pass to the west that granted access to the western Freelands of the North of the Northern Heartlands.
Balient’s Breach was more dangerous and expensive than Altair Pass, but was an alternative until the Grand Barony fell and the pass became a wasteland and impossible due to the evil spirits that refused to rest – hostile to Lich Lord minion and the living alike.Somewhere in the ruins around the Altair Pass is the Altairian Mine – The namesake of the region and its primary income source at one time.
