A simplified map of Region Six of the Realm of Tal-Darion. Often called the Smugglers' Coast, it's an area dominated by rough coastline with many small inlets. Various smuggler camps dot the area, along with footpaths and hidden tunnels. The Coast Patrol has many bases in the area as well, since they play an endless game of cat and mouse with the smugglers. A predominantly green, forested map with almost half the area being water. Numerous paths and roads crisscross the area. The entire map is enclosed in an ornate frame with a banner across the top.
