Silvarea

Silvarea is a winding mountain pass northeast of Varrock, the capital city of Misthalin. The pass's name is rarely used, and is not shown on the World Map. Silvarea has become somewhat synonomous with Paterdomus, the Saradominist temple that dominates its eastern side.

Geography
Silvarea is a large mountain pass, bordered on its north and south side by mountains. Its east side leads to a massive cliff which, along with the River Salve, divides Misthalin and the swamplands of Morytania.

Silvarea serves as the only land route between the two nations, making it a focal point in either realm's defense.

History
Main Article: Paterdomus

Silvarea played host to a series of battles in the Years 1100 to 1200 of the Fourth Age. Morytanian forces, led by Lord Lowerniel Vergidiyad Drakan, attempted to gain Misthalin in a 100-year war that threatened to bring the human race to extinction.

Only with the assistance of the Seven Priestly Warriors were the people of Misthalin and Asgarnia able to defeat the Morytanians. To ensure that a second attack could not be launched, the River Salve was blessed and the Paterdomus temple constructed.

This does not seem to have worked entirely, however; during the Darkness of Hallowvale quest, players witness two werewolves attack and kidnap a traveller on Silvarea.
