“

The descriptive name of the hills north of Saltwind's Welcome is attributed to their expansive fields of medicinal herbs. There are those, however, who insist the perfume in question arises from the Great Work nearby.

The Perfumed Rise is an area in Thavnair, Ilsabard.

Landmarks

Giantsgall Grounds

Quarried here by the wagonload, the purple-streaked stone known as "giantsgall" is one of Thavnair's most coveted exports. Incredibly dense and possessed of high aetherial conductivity, it is prized not only as a building material, but also as a component in the crafting of unyielding arms and armor, and the brewing of alchemical concoctions.

The Hamsa Hatchery

This hatchery was once known at home and abroad for the quality of the meat and eggs produced by its hamsa. Abominations emerging from the Tower of Zot, however, brought a ruinous end to both its livestock and its business.

Kadjaya's Footsteps

Known as the mother of the Kriegstanz, Kadjaya is honored in both name and form at this open-air stage for dancers. Those who carry on her legacy perform here beneath her stone-carved likeness, strutting and twirling for the glory of their gods and ancestors.

Jnanamandapa

Legend has it that this sacred "stage of sagacity" is where the Mrga, who bear a deep affinity with the sea, invited the Manusya (allegedly poor swimmers) to parley and trade heads. Those who worship the Mrga deities are yet known to swim out to the platform as part of their pilgrimage or ascetic rites.

The Tower of Zot

Vrtra, great wyrm of the first brood and the hidden satrap of Radz-at-Han, has bid the Scions cross to Narunnair and mount a foray into the tiny island's unnatural spire─a Telophoroi structure known by the locals as the Tower of Zot.

Your companions join you on the journey, protective talismans in hand, prepared to face whatever unnamed horrors await you within. Come what may, you cannot allow Nidhana and her kin to perish in the grip of dark magicks and darker designs...

Other locations

Narunnair

“

Formerly little more than a convenient fishing spot, this island became too dangerous to approach after the Telophoroi manifested the Tower of Zot. Fortunately, the Scions were able to banish both the spire and its monstrous inhabitants, returning the location to its previous idyllic state.

Khadga

“

This massive rock formation tapers toward a point like a gigantic sword, the weapon represented by its name. One myth states that the Manusya forged a majestic blade to smite their Mrga foes, but when they laid down their armaments in favor of peace, the sword became encased in layers upon layers of stone.

— Encyclopaedia Eorzea Volume III, p. 140

Can be seen in the background of the zone but is normally inaccessible. Only accessible during the patch 6.3 main scenario quest Desires Untold.
