Landmarks

The Nym River

Flowing forth from Bronze Lake, this river has been named in honor of the ancient Nymian temple discovered in its headwater.

A deep scar left by the Calamity, this mighty rift swallowed the Nym River and the land it once flowed through—and with it, countless lives. Thus, the Descent was given its ominous sounding name so that no more would stumble over the precipice to be dashed upon the rocks below.

The Skylift

Once an endless expanse of flat, rocky meadows, Middle La Noscea is now severed by a sheer cliff known as the Descent. To maintain overland trade routes from the easterly outposts of Aleport and Bronze Lake, Lominsan engineers created the Skylift—a tower of wooden scaffolding outfitted with pulleys, winches, and lighter-than-air balloons.

Woad Whisper Canyon

Little more than a shallow valley but five years past, Woad Whisper Canyon was carved into a gaping gorge in a matter of moons after the Calamity drained Bronze Lake and dramatically altered the course of the Nym River. On hot days, labourers from both Summerford Farms and the Skylift will oft take respite in the cool mists of the falls...if not met by bandits.

Foremast

The newest Yellowjacket watchtower, the Foremast, leads into the capital proper—though no adventurer is permitted entry this way. Like the Mizzenmast, its name hearkens back to the nautical, and indicates not only the mast standing nearest a ship's bow, but Limsa Lominsa's resolve to lead the fight.

De Nevelle Checkpoint

From the De Nevelle Checkpoint, the Maelstrom keeps vigil over the road to the hamlet Wineport. In order to watch for the Garlean forces that have advanced into Eastern La Noscea, the post is far more heavily manned than the La Thagran Checkpoint.
