Siltbreaker Bonemeal Ridge Header

Were it not for their limited fondness for battle planning, the Bonemeal Ogres might have driven the Longclaw clan from the Weald a generation ago.

The Bonemeal Ridge is, after the starting zone, the fourth zone of the first act the Siltbreaker campaign.

Geography

Siltbreaker Act 1 Bonemeal Ridge map

The Bonemeal Ridge (full size)

The Bonemeal Ridge is a dead forest riddle with cliffs and pits. Similar to the Trial of Gallaron, all existing trees are dead and the grass and ground took a dead dark grey color. The Bonemeal Ridge is under the control of the Bonemeal Ogres, which can be found everywhere within the area. Throughout the entire area, random objects like bottles, crates, poles, pots, lit candles and other miscellaneous objects can be found. Considering that there also are a lot of human bones lying around or hanging on ropes, and human skulls pierced on poles sticking in the ground, most of these random objects are most likely plundered from humans. There are also several prison cages (refered to as "Tetanus Cages") within this area.

The entrance to the Bonemeal Ridge is one single long wriggly path at its south. The path later splits into 3 direction, north, east and west, although all 3 paths connect later on again. The east path gets immediately split again, so that 2 smaller paths go around a bigger cliff. This cliff is pathable and connected to the paths on both sides with ramps. The paths merge at the other side of the cliff and then go turn northwards, up a small ramp on the higher elevated area. Here, the path splits again, one going further north and the other going towards the west, connecting with the main north path. The west path goes towards the water body which is located to the north-west of the ridge. The path goes all the way at the edge of the Bonemeal Ridge and connects with the north path at the north of the ridge again. Halfway through the west path, there is a hidden land extension on the left side of the path, which leads to what appears to be some sort of ceremonial spot. The north path immediately meets a ramp leading to the same elevated area as the east path does. Here is also where the east path connects with the north path again. Further up the north path, the west path connects with this path again. And for one last time, the path connects again with the east path here, this time via a bridge. So in the end, all 3 paths lead to the north-east corner of this area. After all 3 paths merge, they continue towards the north from here. This path now leads to Bogdugg, the leader of the Bonemeal Ogres.
