Ordelle's Caves

Description

This is a beautiful set of limestone caves discovered by Lord Ordelle, the famed Elvaan explorer. When the map of the area was completed, the shape of the tunnels closely resembled a person's body; this resulted in the alias "the Body Caves," which is still used by the local Elvaan. From the quest A Timely Visit we also learn that Ordelle's Caves was once known as the "Shrine of Endless Travels."
