Connecting the open ocean and the Haar by sea through the Twin Spires of Drefdunahk, the Ancord is a wide but treacherous channel. Just as the chilled winds blowing off the Engheim Mountains, and warm waters of the Haar Bay and beyond combine to regularly cloak Mistfall and the surrounding area in thick banks of fog, a comparable interplay in the water and geography of the strait creates strong tidal currents and tall waves, forcing captains to pay close attention to their vessel, even in broad daylight, or else drift into the rocks of the Twin Spires. Overlooking the strait from the summit of the southern spire is the Huldrom Fortress and the rest of the University city of Cragcliff; countered to the north by the Tidebreaker Towers of Ancord. From the sheer quantity of vessels, to the perilous weather and currents, to the cannons and tidebreakers defending it all, the Ancord Strait has scuttled more vessels than almost anywhere else in world. Those few off-course ships and overboard travelers lucky enough to evade a tragic end stuck on the high seas or dashed against the unforgiving rocks of the Twin Spires often find themselves washed to the docks and shores of Novas Arule.
