Editing Winter Run Road

The Winter Run Road is the primary northern trade route departing from Arim’s Well. It winds its way through the rugged foothills and ascends into the snow-dusted ridges of the northern Surmad mountains. The road skirts the western edge of Katen Lake, known for its eerie whispers and haunting local legends, before passing near the logging town of Furu Ridge. Heavily used in the colder months due to its stable elevation and consistent snowfall—preferred by mountain sled caravans—the road is vital for the transport of timber, game, and preserved goods. However, Winter Run is not without peril; sudden rockslides and predatory beasts are known to stalk the high passes.
