54 CHAPTER 2 | DISTANT LANDS
No one knows just how many dragons there
are in Argonnessen, but people tell stories of
^I[\KI^MZVKWUXTM`M[ÅTTML_Q\P\PM\ZMI[]ZM[
of fallen civilizations, of prisons holding bound
demons, of cities made from diamond and
adamantine. Is there any truth to these tales, or is
it all myth?
EVERICE AND THE FROSTFELL
In Everice or the Frostfell, you might...
- Discover an ancient civilization hidden
beneath the ice. - Search for the survivors of a lost expedition.
- Find the source of a mysterious mystical
signal.
The poles of Eberron are almost as mysterious
as Argonnessen. Some dwarves believe that
their ancestors originally came to Khorvaire
from the Frostfell, but there’s been no contact
with Frostfell dwarves in modern times. Legends

psychic overlords. - Defend an ancient mountain
monastery. - Disable a monolith used to control
the dreams of a city.
Tens of thousands of years ago, the
vast continent of Sarlona was the
cradle of human civilization. Three
\PW][IVLaMIZ[IOW\PMÅZ[\P]UIV
colonists set forth from Sarlona,
setting in motion the events that
would shape modern-day Khorvaire.
Once Sarlona was home to over
a dozen distinct kingdoms, but
today only two established nations
remain: the mighty empire of Riedra and the
mountain sanctuary of Adar. Riedra is ruled by
the Inspired, humans tied to extraplanar spirits
and imbued with psychic powers. Adar is the
homeland of the Kalashtar. Riedra maintains an
endless siege of Adar, and both nations have little
contact with Khorvaire.
XEN’DRIK
In Xen’drik, you could...
- Seek to destroy ancient mystical weapons
before they fall into the hands of villains. - Battle savage giants in the ruins of their
ancient cities. - Match wits with cunning drow in the
depths of a primordial jungle.
