Vale of Shadows
On this tab
The Vale of Shadows is a hollow within the Shadow Lands, hemmed in by mountains and cut by two rivers that run down to the Jade Sea.
Where those rivers meet stand the ruins of Stygai, the Night City, and it is said that sunlight only ever reaches the valley at noon.
Geography
Ringed by mountains, the valley receives two rivers that flow down to the Jade Sea, and it is this double course that shapes it within the Shadow Lands.
Where the two rivers meet lie the ruins of Stygai, the Night City, set right at the junction of the waters.
Of this place one thing is said that is enough to explain its name: that sunlight only ever enters the valley at noon, leaving it dark the rest of the day.

PositionWe worked it out
The position was inferred from the label on the base map rather than from a symbol of its own: it marks the area, not the point.
