Pit of Zedoran

From PathfinderWiki

The Pit of Zedoran is a vast sinkhole within the depths of the Northern Fangwood. Streams of water carrying leaves and organic debris cascade down its sides, and layers of moss and lichen cover hanging vines and ancient roots. The thick forest canopy allows little sunlight to reach the moss-covered earth.

The pit is named for the green dragon1 Zedoran who as of 4722 AR still laired here.2 At the edge of the central pit is a wooden cage lift, manually operated by Zedoran's minions. There are two cages, one at the top and the other at the bottom of the pit, each large enough to hold eight humans.3
