Sunqua Vale

Sunqua Vale is an idyllic location nestled between the mountains and the southwestern cliffs of Shing Jea Island. It includes portions of the short east-west mountain range of which Tomaat Pass leads from the Shrine of Maat towards the western coast of the island. The lowland areas of this area are sparsely populated by simple Mantids and wandering Kappa. Towards the western end, near Lake Puang, some Naga can be encountered. The snowy mountain range is slightly more dangerous, with bands of Sensali Tengu and the Crimson Skull patrolling about.

This is the first explorable area where new players will encounter hostile enemies. The Mantids (excluding a few in Zhengjo Temple), Kappa, and Naga in the area are passive until attacked first, but the Sensali, the Yetis, and the Crimson skull band encountered in the northern mountainous paths do attack on aggro.
