The Sarn Myr; meaning "South Sea" in the elven tongue, is one of the four oceans of Oris. Sailors call this ocean the "Forbidden Sea."
This vast arctic ocean, located south of the continent of Azoria, is feared by many sea-farers, for most believe it is forbidden by the Gods to travel past the Cape of Black Ice.
But some hardy travelers must cross this sea and brave its dangerous icebergs, to travel between the seaports of the realms of Iskandar, Rennsfar, and Serathyr, and their trading partners in the Seven Cities of Bronze.
Because of the extreme temperatures and dangerous conditions, only the strongest of vessels can withstand the waters of the Sarn Myr, and it is a badge of honor for sea-captains to have traversed it successfully.
