On the other side of Clearwater Lake at the border of The Mountain Isle, you will come to Culost Eden. This is the sacret center of the Tharadan-Abcuilrendir. This is in their opinion the new Culost. It is in this haven they can study and pray in peace and wealth. It is from this haven they can make their crusade to make all see the might of Gûl.
