South of a wide point in the waterway Adarans call Jathara Sound—the wide area known as Kasshta's Belly— sits the hidden fortress of Ghoza. Although Ghoza is built high on the cliffs near the sound, it has rooms that occupy caverns to the waterline. These natural chambers lead to flooded grottos that eventually open into Kasshta's Belly. Ghoza's warriors are expert swimmers and more free spirited than many of Adar's monks. The magic of local elemental binders (some affiliated with the Keepers of the Word) allowed Ghozan specialists to build a few vessels that permit limited underwater operations. However, most missions rely on people instead of craft. For centuries, Ghozans have caused trouble for Riedran shipping—problems easily blamed on weather, the creatures that inhabit the sound, or the mongrel ogres (eneko) of Syrkarn. Riedra's activities on the sound are limited now, and much of its supplies pass overland.
