Reaching south-east from Storm's End between Shipbreaker Bay and the Sea of Dorne, this peninsula is covered largely by the rainwood and edged with cliffs. Storms roll in off the narrow sea with little warning.
Griffin's Roost, Rain House and Mistwood are among the holdings on it. Poor roads, thick forest and hostile weather make the cape difficult country for any army, and its coasts have wrecked more ships than they have sheltered.
