Valley of Skulls
From Age of Sigmar - Lexicanum
The Valley of Skulls is the valley between the Zhulghar Mountains and Greatiron Tor on the Fireplains of Aqshy.[1a]
Appearance
In the Age of Myth, the valley was verdant and fertile, but once Bloodkeep was built atop Greatiron Tor, Khornate warriors began placing skull offerings against the tor, and over the centuries the millions of skulls have covered the entire valley. Scattered among the more mundane skulls are altars and monuments to Khorne and skulls of immense beasts. [1a]
Wildlife
Strange, chaos-corrupted carrion beasts live off the skull offerings. When the Stormcast Eternals and Fyreslayers crossed the valley during the Realmgate Wars, some of the beasts proved so large and aggressive that entire fyrds were needed to kill them.[1a]
