Great Farmuth

Summary

Great Farmuth is a private, hidden place associated with the Founders, merfolk, and a port that the two peoples are said to have abandoned or concealed. It appears in Browning’s pre-Dome map and in old mage-school imagery as a city of buildings and walkways, while Lord Bleakstorm’s history connects it to Far Grove and possible Founder technology behind Grand Towers. Its location and relationship to the hidden ports remain unresolved.

Known Details
