Tarsuun Pass is defined by layered stone terraces, fractured cliffs, and mineral springs. The pass gradually narrows as it approaches Lepigisţil, whose fortified terraces overlook its final ascent into the valley proper.

Historical Significance

The Tarsuun Pass has long served as the principal overland route into Sanctuary Vale. The pass was first opened during the Great Erosion, and served as a critical entry point for retreating Namuril.

Throughout history, control of the pass has been synonymous with the protective nature of Sanctuary Vale.

The entrance to Sanctuary Vale itself is marked by the remains of the Namuril Gates, thought to have been erected by the Yairaniians who may have used them to seal off the valley from external threats.
