The Evermoors are a region of bog-pocketed hills, long rolling vistas, rocky ridges and small peaks hiding deposits of valuable ores, located at the western edge of the Silver Marches. The Evermoors are bound by the River Surbrin and the Lower Rauvin Vale to the north, the River Surbrin and the Surbrin Hills to the west and the Silverwood to the east. To the south and east is open land and the High Forest. The river Laughingflow originates deep within the Evermoors and meets the River Surbrin after it passes though the Surbrin Hills. Evermoor Way, the major route from Yartar to Everlund, passes between the Evermoor and the High Forest.
This region had been known for its troll population, however recent history (Present Age) is changing the face of the Evermoors. Humans in general have not bothered to tame this land, being good only for grazing of sheep or rothé and prospecting, both of which the trolls usually stopped. In recent times (1372 DR+) giants have come from the north and are pushing the trolls out of the Evermoors, much to the distress of surrounding countryside.
