Shyvar Pass

See Also: Aglarond

The Shyvar Pass is a much more difficult passage through the Tannath Mountains than the Tannath Gap, varying in width from 100 yards to ten miles. It seems a natural invasion route for Thay, and the Red Wizards have attempted the pass several times over the centuries. However, it is high, narrow, and tortuous, filled with places where a small company can hold off an army. Aglarondan watchtowers keep an eye on the pass, but these days they greet Thayan trade caravans instead of fending off raiders.
