A massive moat was recently built before the gates. From within the deep moat,
a long ramp leads upwards to the south gates of Shady Grove. The moat is

mark your entry into the city and keep an eye out for danger. The gates to the
city are large and black. Constructed from black obsidian forged in the fiery
pits of a volcanoe, these gates have kept unwanted visitors out of the city. On
