The Valley of Wailing Mists is a fog-shrouded expanse in the southern part of Avalon on Otherworld, steeped in mystery and guarded by the echoes of ancient sorcery.[1]

History

The Wailing Mists,[2] or Valley of Wailing Mists, stretches through the land of Gorre, a day's ride southwest of Camelot.[3] It lies west of the Great Rift and northeast of what was once Castle Le Fay.[1] Only the most daring sorcerers venture into its eerie depths, where the valley’s perpetual fog obscures the landscape and veils its secrets.[4]

The valley's history is intertwined with Castle Le Fay, the former home of Morgan Le Fay, which was concealed by the mists.[3] Both the valley and the castle are believed to have been relocated to Avalon from the Earth realm centuries ago, similar to Camelot.[5]

In recent times, the Valley became a battlefield during the invasion of Otherworld by Horoam'ce, the Goat of Self-Propagation. The Goat's undead army claimed the land beyond the Great Rift and the Wailing Mists[2] before being defeated.[6] Later, the Manchester Gods sought to invade the valley, intending to destroy Castle Le Fay, a critical place of Otherworld's power.[7]

Excalibur also traversed the Valley of Wailing Mists on a mission to guide Doctor Doom to Castle Le Fay. While navigating the treacherous terrain, the mutant team was targeted by an assassin from Sevalith. The vampire's attempt failed, and the mist allowed him to vanish, enabling Excalibur to press onward toward their destination.[4]
