Cerulean Coast
The Cerulean Coast is a stretch of shoreline in the south of the Realm of Shadow, reached from the Gravesite Plain. Fields of blue flowers run down toward the water, and the beaches are dotted with enormous stone coffins that have drifted in from somewhere far away. It is a quiet, strange and rather beautiful place, but do not let that fool you.
The coast is home to packs of demi-humans, led by Demi-Human Queen Marigga, and a Troll near the way down into the Stone Coffin Fissure likes to lob sleep pots at passers-by. Lightning rams roam the northern part of the area, and the caves along the cliffs hold putrescent rotmounds.
From here you can reach the Finger Ruins of Rhia and the Finger-Weaver’s Hovel, the Southern Nameless Mausoleum on an island just offshore where the Dancer of Ranah waits, and the gaping Stone Coffin Fissure that leads down toward Charo’s Hidden Grave and the Jagged Peak region.

How to get there
The coast lies on the southern shore, past the Gravesite Plain. The road there is guarded by a Furnace Golem on the path from the plain. Picking up the Map Southern Shore here reveals the coast along with Charo’s Hidden Grave and the Jagged Peak area.
Lore
The ancient dynasty kept records of the giant stone coffins that kept washing up on this shore, a flow that began in the age when Death was burned away in ghostflame. The coffins were richly carved, but the fallen heroes sealed inside had long since rotted into a putrid liquid.
