The Northern Span is a very large desert area underneath the gigantic bridge that spans the Forbidden Lands. The area's shrine is located in quadrant F2, in the middle of the area. Celosia's lair is found one quadrant north of here in a deep canyon. As expected with a desert, any trees present bear no fruit, and two lizards can only be found at and surrounding the prayer shrine.
The area links together the following areas:
- The Dried Marsh (northwest of shrine)
- The Desert Fortress (northeast)
- The Misty Falls (east)
- The Half-moon Canyon (southeast)
- The Ravine Entrance and Round Stone Hill (southwest)
