Geography
Tributaries:Hungry Fish River and Tiger River

Blood Bay is a small body of water inset on the southern coast of Jeklea Bay. It is about 25 miles east of Sasserine and directly abuts the Amedio Jungle. It is about 15 miles across, at its widest point.

"There are many stories behind the color of Blood Bay. Some old salts hold that the waves run scarlet with the blood of Gulrotha, a kraken too wounded by sailors to return to the open ocean. Others think it a pirate plot, the entire bay dyed red in an effort to scare the curious away from their underhanded dealings. Sages scoff at both ideas, claiming the bay’s unique coloring is merely the result of iron deposits swept down from the mountains by the Hungry Fish River."[1]
