The Salt Flats of Sanath are the-eastern Druj territory of The Mallum, lying across the Nameless River from the Barrens. The Empire knows very little about this territory, and what they do know comes from stories related by the [{Great Forest Orcs]]. There are woodlands in the north thatgive way to broad plains crisscrossed by dark waterways. The ground is damp, and the further east one travels the more water there is. Eventually, one reaches the port of Leen - the Great Forest orcs believe it is the largest settlement in the Mallum, controlled by a powerful clan who also dominate the shifting islands to the east of it. The Grendel were known to visit Leen regularly trading mithril for weirwood, at least until the 383YE treaty with the Empire put a temporary end to that practice.

After the Summer Solstice 385YE, the Empire [{A walk in shadow|sent an expeditionary force]] across the Nameless River into the Salt Flats of Sanath.
