The Norvrandt Slope
“After moving out from the continental shelf, the ocean floor drops away in a steep slope. Ordinarily, mortal men could not survive here, but Bismarck's dome of air makes it possible to breathe-and walk-in the briny depths.
— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume III, p. 118
The Norvrandt Slope is an area in The Tempest, Norvrandt.
Landmarks
“When the Ondo beheld the coral within this cavern, its crimson branches put them in mind of a land-dweller's veins─thus began the legend that it was a resting place for finless ones who had perished at sea. It was not until recently, however, that folk from the surface learned the reason behind the rather ominous-sounding name.
“Grown over by coral and layers of algae, it is believed these remnants were once part of the civilization which ruled the star in the age before the Sundering. The structures themselves have survived millennia without signs of deterioration, and seem impervious to hammer or blade.
— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume III, p. 118
“An antagonistic tribe of Ondo known as the benthos have claimed these caverns as their home. They wish no dealings with the surface dwellers no matter the circumstance, likening themselves to those sea creatures which cleave to the ocean floor.
— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume III, p. 118
“The hefty pearls harvested from the giant mollusks of this spawning grounds are of immense value—fit for the jewelry of an Ondo queen.
— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume III, p. 118
“This facility was built by a Crystarium native─a genius artisan seeking to escape from the distractions of the outside world. Although he simply calls the place his “Workbench,” the mundane naming is at odds with the fantastical concept of a forge constructed malms beneath the ocean.
