Emprise du Lion

Emprise du Lion is an area in the Highlands of the Dales. It is a cold and craggy environment dotted with elven ruins.

Background
"The ancient and the modern co-exist in the highlands of Emprise du Lion, where relics of the lost elven nation are scattered among bustling human villages. These hills are home to the village of Sahrnia, known throughout Orlais for its quarry, which produces azure granite of remarkable quality."

Emprise du Lion is a snow-covered area formerly occupied by elves. Several ancient elven ruins including a large keep and coliseums are located in the area. The hot springs in the Emprise have attracted dragons in recent years.

Trivia

 * "Emprise du Lion" is French for "Hold of the Lion," or "Grip of the Lion." Emprise also means an adventurous enterprise or knightly daring, so another interpretation is "Undertaking of the Lion", which could reference the area's conditions.
