According to [[Valta]], this area has not been discovered before. Therefore, not much is known beyond what the Inquisitor sees and does. This place is filled with untapped lyrium veins and Shal-Brytol.

The Buried Sea has a subtle but eerie blue color but has reportedly large waves and it is thus dangerous to stand too close.<ref>[[Deep Roads Expeditions: Buried Sea Bridge]]</ref> Swimming is also inadvisable because of significant lyrium concentration on the water.<ref>[[Landmarks in the Deep Roads#The Buried Sea|The Buried Sea]]</ref>}} |

At an unspecified time after the First Blight the Sha-Brytol started inhabiting these caverns but left the [[lyrium vein]]s unexploited and by 9:41 [[Dragon Age (time period)|Dragon]] the veins are overgrown so much that [[Varric Tethras]] jokingly remarks that he would have been the richest [[dwarf]] in the [[Dwarven Merchants' Guild]] if he exploited the untapped lyrium. However such venture is unrealistic considering the extreme dangers involved.<ref name="derelict"/> [[The Inquisitor]] may visit the location as part of [[The Descent (quest)]] along with [[Shaperate|Shaper]] [[Valta]] in hopes of discovering the source of the earthquakes. |

Inside the caverns there is a strange altar with various blood markings around it and it is guarded by an [[Arcane horror]].}} |
