Shrouded in a thick fog and mystified by centuries of folklore, Devil's Gap is a perilous pit that is said to reach the deepest depths of Jorvik. Legend says the land was cursed by the Vala, an ancient coven of mystic women that have since passed out of memory.

Appearance

Devil's Gap is perpetually dark and gloomy regardless of the time of day, leading to low visibility. There are torches lit by blue fireflies throughout that provide some light. Ravens can be seen flying around and perched on trees and rocks. A few Pandoric crystals can be seen growing from the rocks, along with some blue paintings of Vala witches and other symbols. At the bottom in Devil's Depths, there is rolling ground mist and pools of water. Stone arches and a few old rope bridges provide passage through the area. It appears to be uninhabited except for Sive.

Access

The area is only accessible through the Wild Weave portal and the passage from the Forgotten Shores. The passage is open after the way is cleared in quests. The path to the Jarlaheim gate is blocked by stones.
