Maw of the Void

The Maw of the Void is a subzone of Darkshore southeast of Lor'danel. It is a massive whirlpool that all of the water of the zone, like the Cliffspring River, drains into. Jumping into it (for whatever reason) treats the player to a short cutscene of his or her character begin sucked into the whirlpool. Players end up in the Bashal'Aran Collapse, and will also get the Going Down? achievement if they have not already. You can also get the achievement for completing the quest from Telarius Voidstrider.

Trivia
Its name may be a reference to the StarCraft II mission of the same name.
