Mooren Lake

Mooren Lake is a crystalline lake northeast of the Summit Peaks on the Lucidian Coast. It is fed by the snowmelt from the Alabaster Sierras by the Mooren River Run. To its east is the cold Rootgarden Marsh.

Economy
The lake provides most of the freshwater fish consumed by eastern Tal'Dorei, via the sleepy town of Drynna where the Mooren River Run empties into the lake.

Ecology and Nearby Inhabitants
Mooren Lake is surrounded both by bountiful wildlife and the terrifying creatures, including tribes of lizardfolk, flocks of harpies, and several hydras that lurk in the depths of the waters. Centuries of whitestone runoff from the Alabaster Sierras has allowed deposits of residuum to collect at the bottom of the lake, forming an organ of raw magical energy that by 812 PD has begun to gain sentience.

Folk tales tell of a beautiful, ageless woman known as the Moon Mistress who watches over the shores of twin islands in the lake. It’s said that anyone who seeks an audience with her is judged and granted a boon of unveiled knowledge, a favor, or a swift and terrible end. She appears as a water nymph, but is actually a night hag, and she is the target of a blood hunter in Drynna.
