== Landmarks ==
* [[Wizard's Tower]]

== Notes ==
{{gw2w|Kessex Hills}}
* The only [[resurrection shrine]] is at the beginning of the area.
* [[Apprentice of Verata|Apprentices of Verata]] will steal party members' [[minion]]s using [[Verata's Gaze]].
* Complete exploration of this area contributes approximately 1.1% to the Tyrian [[Cartographer]] title.
*These quests will affect the [[spawn]]s in this area:
**[[The Villainy of Galrath]] (reduces foes by about 20)
**[[Heirlooms of the Mad King]] ([[Halloween]] quest)
{{Vanquisher|count = 190|low = 156|high = 205|notes=Has hidden foes.}}
** Many consider this area more difficult than others due to the [[Cult of Verata]] presence.
*** Bring party members that are not dependent on [[line of sight]]; this allows for killing many of the [[Cult of Verata]] in relative safety by standing at the foot of their cliff, out of [[compass range]] from the access slope. ([[EVAS]] is great for luring enemies from even further away into to the party's range.)
*** With [[The Villainy of Galrath]] (not the [[The Villainy of Galrath (Hard mode)|hard mode version]]) active, many of the groups are converted to weaker groups of bandits, making vanquishing easier.
** If the [[War in Kryta]] is active, the area will also include [[Peacekeeper]]s and [[White Mantle]].
