At the northern tip of the Salicios Ocean, between Thass, and the island of Frest is the Everswamp of Mar. It is considered an ocean, despite being too thick in most places for a ship to sail through. Most of the Everswamp is perpetually shrouded in a greenish mist, causing the nights to be as black and thick as tar. Most intelligent beings (save for the Swamp Ogres, who could hardly be said to be intelligent anyway) steer clear of the Everswamp as it merely proves to be an impassable obstacle on the way north, and a difficulty to cross heading between Frest and Thass. Nevertheless, in many parts the Everswamp is teeming with life, countless unique plants (among these; creepers that can uproot themselves to find a new location and enormous trees that grow from the murky depths) and animals call the Everswamp home.
In some places islands big enough for villages and small towns can be found in the Everswamp, however these are dangerous and unstable and have a tendency to sink without warning. The most solid "landmass" in the Everswamp is a small collection of stone islands that are the remains of a long extinct volcano in the centre of the Everswamp. A series of ruins has been found on these, and while little is known about them it is suspected that they are the ruins of Yenath.

Its name comes from the infamous Mar, who is said to be the first of the Returners.
