Oloonde Lakeland is a foresty region north eats of the continent. It's mostly famous for the five major bodies of water connected through a web of streams and rivers flowing into each lake or pond. The most famous of them are the Lake of Arrows, the Lake of Souls, Sullon Lake, Mirror Sea, and Still moon Pond. The area is very hilly, with the more elevated lakes and ponds pouring their waters in waterfalls and quick rapids.
The region is also known for its many tales and myths, and for being far more populated by elves than the central part of the continent.

Sullon lake is a very deep and losange-shaped lake. It's situated much lower than the lake of souls, and the waters from there go down in a powerful and majestic waterfalls. It then goes out from an underwater exit leading to the Jewel river. The waters of the lake are dark, cold, and treacherous, with very strong churning currents and deadly whirpools forming all over it. The depth of the lake is what it is the most famous for, however. Nobody has really measured just how deep it goes but Sullon comes from a word from an ancient language ( "Suh-lhon" ) that means "Abyssal".
