Lake Arus

Lake Arus is a massive lake created at the end of the Old Wars. The massive upheaval of the area south of the Snowpeaks created a deep chasm. This chasm filled with water from the mountain storms and runoff within a few months, creating a lake almost 100 miles long and 20 miles wide. The chasm formed near the mouth of the Thol River, and now the lake feeds the river that empties into the Bay of Tyral. The increase in the river's flow created the Koril Marshes where the Thol meets the Serpent. A large town, also known as Arus, has sprung up at the edge of the lake where it empties into the Thol River.
