The Dragon Scars are a series of deep, parallel canyons between the Rivers Qaro and Qes in Ishtar. Each over a hundred miles long, Ishtaran legends hold the Scars to be the the result of an ancient battle between exceptionally powerful dragons, strong enough that they reshaped the earth around them as they fought. Some even claim the Scars to have been created in the primordial battle between Marduk and Tiamat, a belief particularly widespread amongst the dragons that live around Ishtar. A number of dragons dwell within the Scars, and those living elsewhere sometime make visits and pilgrimages.
