Information

North Sparrow Pass, located in eastern Muse Principality, connects the City-States of Jowston with the southern territories of Highland. It is a dangerous area, blanketed with deep fog, allowing monsters and bandits to roam the area day and night.

In addition to this, there were rumors of a terrible Mist Shade living here during the early Dunan Unification War. However, it was defeated by a band of wandering entertainers and their companions.

Trivia

The proper translation for this area would be North Swallow Pass. The kanji used above in the location name is 燕 whereas for the English name to be correct it would have to be 雀 (suzume, "sparrow"). It's unclear why the type of bird the region was named for was changed in the English language version.
