12.63 THE SANGRE PLAINS

These plains lie between the Prelatorian Highway, Ashtan, the Urubamba River,
and the Granite hills. Known as the 'Breadbasket of Sapience' in times past, it
is still important agriculturally. The village of Petra lies nestled in the
western part of the Sangre, and it is around that village that most of the
modern day farming is done.

The Sangre is also known for the fact that it was a major battleground between
the armies of Ashtan and Shallam in the days leading up to the forming of
Seleucar.
