Upper Tears

Upper Tears is a Tier 4+ canyon scene in the Verdantis region, near the Kas Ruins along the river Tears. The river was, until recently, controlled by a dam in this part of the world. Unfortunately the dam burst and the resulting flood wiped out the town. Barbarians and bandits have since moved in to try and scour the ruins for treasure.

The Upper Tears scene houses the Upper Tears Gauntlet.

Trivia

 * Upper Tears is a Tier 4+ zone in the north of Novia. The Tears is a prominent river in that region. Recently, massive floodwaters rushed down a tributary canyon and broke the damn holding the river water back above a Norgard village, and submerged most of the settlement. Waters have since receded but the destruction is almost total.
 * There is a secret cave off to the left of the cliff behind the waterfall. This spawns elite undead in a wave battle.
 * The map name for this scene is Novia_R8_Hills02_01
