Recommended level: roughly 124–153. Monster strength in Wanderer rises steadily with distance east, so the west edge of a region is always gentler than its east edge.
The region
Every stone in the Last Cairn marks somebody. This is the final stretch of maintained road before the deep frontier, and it feels like a long goodbye: waymarkers, memorials, and the caravanserai of the Last Well pouring drinks for travellers who may not come back.
Mechanically it's a threshold region — the last comfortable grind before the Dusk Frontier's spike. Leave it stronger than you entered it.
Settlements
No permanent settlement holds this stretch of the road — plan your supplies around the neighbouring regions.

Getting here
The Last Cairn sits east of Blackroot Wilds, with The Dusk Frontier beyond its far border. Teleport scrolls (sold at Wanderer's Rest, 1,000 coins) can return you instantly to any town you have already discovered, which makes the first walk through a region the only slow one.
