History
Ruins of Shadowmark only came into existence after 458 LV. Before then, it was the settlement of Shadowmark for several centuries, which itself was rebuilt on the ruins of the ancient Arcanist city of Anshar. Even before that, there are evidence of anzu living here. When the Heart of Rage was unleashed, titans began breaching the nearby Shadow Lock, the settlement was abandoned. Later, nature took over it, while Shadowmark kept sinking into the ground surrounding the cenote in its center.

What existed here before the cataclysm started taking over is unknown. It may never be possible ot determine the real truth behind this area. There is at least one rift, one Pocket of Stable Reality, and one Central Crystal apparatus here. Ruins of Shadowmark has mostly Post-Legion Era architecture with some buildings remnant from the days of the Legion of Dawn. Although modern human structures are seen, mostly because there was no need for them to have been built, as Shadowmark was thriving until a decade ago.

There is an abandoned mine against an deepwater lake. There are many Urgoth structures found scattered here, but only near the border of the subregion.
