The Spiral is a winding network of snowy fjords on/around the Cold Isles. They are shrouded by mists, and the people of Isles believe these mists are the dying breath of Empress Mehrwen. The Tempests who are purest of heart and will embark on a dangerous voyage to the Spiral in order to breathe in the mists, hear the whispering voices of an earlier age, and grow in knowledge and power to command sea and sky as the empresses did.[1] This is the most crucial part of their training, and also dangerous. Take in enough of Mehrwen's breath, and they inherit her power over wind and wave. Take in too much, and they forego their bodies and minds.[2] Physical symptoms prelude this stage, which Tempests are always watchful for.[3]
The Unmoored are also based on the Spiral.[4] The Spiral is also infested by mistfiends.[5]
The demon Aeyntragga roosted upon the Spiral centuries ago, and far removed from Pelghain's protection, its villagers offered him tribute and worship to stave off his wrath. After the empire's fall, with the Unmoored increasingly occupied with the ever-roiling storms, he ventured further inland from his roost.[6]
