The Ice Rime Hills or Ice-Rime Hills, is a region in North Aerona, part of the Domains of Dominaria.
Description
The Ice Rime Hills lie east of the Sea of Fire, south of Keld and the Rip, and west of the Whispering Woods.
The hills are grassy pine barrens, with pockets of hardwood trees that shelter mule deer, goats, and stunted bison. Dangerous Will-O'-The-Wisps roam the bogs, mesmerizing and luring careless wanderers to a mucky death. The swamps are also home to a tribe of sedge trolls, which are known to kidnap and eat unwary travelers. The pine barrens feature dark groves blooming with valuable black lotuses.[1]
Farther west lies a port city called Concord, which was visited by Towser's entourage, and a large seaport called Oyster Bay.[2] The buildings and streets of Oyster Bay are carved into white chalk cliffs.[3]
The Ice Rime Hills contained sacred sites of Keld. Control over the region was contested between Keld and Benalia. A summit to settle their dispute was held at Oyster Bay in 4561 AR.[3]
