The Falls

Description
The Falls is the western-most explorable area in Tyria. It is heavily populated by Jungle Trolls, Jungle Skale and Wind Riders, but offers two of the most amazing waterfalls across three continents (points 2 and 3 on the map). Following the three-quarters elliptical path in the southern section you will encounter Dark Oak, and shortly after him, a grand temple with a Statue of Balthazar (point 1). Lucky adventurers might also find a Totem Axe or a Forgotten Fan dropping from Root Behemoths or Wind Riders (respectively) deeper in the zone.

The Falls is also the name of the interactive waterfall (point 2) that hides the entrance to Zinn's Secret Lair.

Explorable Areas

 * Reed Bog (Northeast)

Getting there
The only way to access this area is by traveling through Ettin's Back and Reed Bog, with the nearest outpost being Ventari's Refuge.

Points of Interest

 * Statue of Balthazar (point 1 on the map) from which you can summon a Champion of Balthazar, who offers Blessings. You cannot enter The Fissure of Woe from this statue's Champion of Balthazar, in contrast with the statue of Grenth found in Lornar's Pass. The structure that the statue is in seems to be a temple of Balthazar. This type of structure can only be found in two other places: Heroes' Ascent in The Battle Isles and the bridge to the Gate of Secrets in the Domain of Secrets.
