The fog of the Sorrows is attributed to the fall of Chroyane and Garin's Curse upon the Valyrians during the Second Spice War.[2] There has not been law above the Sorrows for a thousand years, so pirates are common in the Rhoyne north of Chroyane, although they do not enter the ruined city.[3] Volantene galleys patrol the river south of the Sorrows.[3] The Shrouded Lord is said to rule the Sorrows.[2]
