Luclin · The Shadows of Luclin
Marus Seru
Marus Seru, the Sea of Seru, is a plain of melted stone under endless daylight beside Sanctus Seru, where the recuso cast out of the city make their home.
The Sea of Seru
Player guides describe Marus Seru as a blasted landscape on the light side of Luclin, near the city of Sanctus Seru. The stone shows signs of having been melted into one glistening sheet eons ago, and the area has stayed a scorching plain in eternal daylight.
The recuso, who have been cast out of Sanctus Seru, make their home here.

Dangers
The zelniaks are highly aggressive to anything that moves and have a large aggro radius, a player guide warns. Lightcrawlers attack anyone too, though they are much rarer. Stonegrabbers and rockhoppers are social, and will help any ally you are fighting.
Notable residents include Queen Kvaknak, Gerak Jelin and Reothe. Because the plain is so flat and open, an aggressive zelniak can see a traveller from far off, and a player guide’s warning about its large aggro radius is the one to remember when crossing.

Safe, open hunting
The plain is vast and open, a player guide says, and it is flat and always light, so visibility is very good. Most of its monsters are relatively weak compared with others on the moon, which a player guide says are generally much more powerful than they look, so it is a good place to solo or hunt in a small group in safety.
Hunting the recuso raises your standing with Sanctus Seru, which may be needed before some quests or training in the city. The Atlas rates the zone 20 to 40, and a player guide 15 to 45.

Neighbours
The Atlas lists three exits: Mons Letalis to the north, Sanctus Seru, and Netherbian Lair. A player guide names the same three.
A player guide adds that the harsh climate of the plain climbs into Mons Letalis, the Lethal Mountain, where stronger creatures live. Through the lair lies the Nexus; for the city’s rule over this land, see Sanctus Seru and the Inquisition.
