Bern Lake
BERN LAKe
A COLD NORTHRON LAKE OF THE MOUNTS
Bern Lake is a cold lake far to the north, with a small village and shrine to the Hero of the Frozen Lake, Croydon the Coldheart, hugging its shores. Croydon’s great Godbreaker blade rests beneath the frigid waters of the lake. The great Baerhorn mountain looms over the lake and a dour, grey forest known as the Bleakwood borders the village.
